      A place to learn a lot but pace of change and innovation is glacial combined with hierarchical, command and control leadership bias.

      Pros

      Good benefits, recognizable name. Not much else

      Cons

      Unless you are white, European, and male, your chances of advancement are low. Company talks Diversity but when it comes to action, it is not there. 401K only vests after 5 years

      Very large company with typical politics and behaviors

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Job security, many different divisions and possible roles, generally good managers, flexible work hours, pretty good insurance and benefits, and a friendly culture.

      Cons

      Consistently incompetent HR, which has outsourced everything in the name of cost savings to the point when managing simple things like benefits, hiring, and firing are nearly impossible to so smoothly. Despite trying to drive for a "high performing culture" (in their words), their actions never quite make it and there is considerable mediocrity from employees that simply won't ever be fired. Salaries are considerably below industry average. It wasn't uncommon to receive offers for 25-30% more for the same job from other companies. Culture and politics driven from German HQ, which makes any meaningful change EXTREMELY difficult and slow. As a result, the company can't react to market and customer changes in a timely manner.
