Pros

A lot of wonderful talented people across the world, committed to pushing the business forwards and to seeking out new opportunites

Cons

A number of other people who only look at their own little bit of the business and operate without a care for the business as a whole. Poor compensation compared with the market unless the business line is a trendy one

Business Outlook

Pros

Steady work little chance of being layed off. This company has lower level promotion oppurtunitys. Large company expantion to other sites around the world.

Cons

Lower managment can be quite incompitent and cares little for employee personal issues (ex school, family). Work overload at times and schedule can change by the day.
