      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Dynamic organization, training programs are excellent, career is limited only by potential, multiple career paths, international careers and exposure, offsets are paid for difficult living environments, well respected name, best research and development program in th eindustry

      Cons

      Lifestyle is difficult, organization is slow to respond at times and rigid, due to sheer numbers the business systems generally operate under the Pareto principle, competition is not always equal, having seniority or being senior is not always a plus

      A company that flirt every time with you breaking point.

      Area manager (support activities)

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fast career grow. Basic benefits package are fair, dental and medical. Interesting stock purchase plan for employees. Somewhat flexible work time.

      Cons

      Extremely competitive environment. It's part of their culture, they believe it is for the best of the business, and for sure it has been demonstrated in practice that it is, but unfortunately it goes against work-life balance and employees sake. None or at least minimum follow up or training for non operational positions. Their merit recognition and professional assessment are almost useless for many positions and many countries. Unfortunately the union of fast career grow, lack of proper training and no real mentoring has led to promote unprepared professionals. Powerless and careless HR.

      Good and Bad

      Pros

      it's a leading company in its field with the most advanced technologies and best training. high level standard, diverse people, cultures and languages.

      Cons

      despite the standards, it's at the end people driven, so if you got good managers your life and location will be good, otherwise you'll start rethinking of continuing in this company (it's that hard).
