Pros

Wide scope of operations (geographically and industry wise) Great atmosphere to work Opportunities to develop different skills in different jobs. Culturally and country diverse. There are great efforts to ensure everybody feels integrated.

Cons

Job security and stability. Every 3-4 years need to find a role within organisation and sometimes the process can be a bit messy. Lack of structured approach to manage staff career creates an excessive dependency on networking (which might be a challenge for some employees).
