Pros

Great management. The team atmosphere is very endearing, everyone gets along and easy going. Management micro-manages most new hires and helps with any solutions.

Cons

Advancement in the company is solely based on tenure and experience. Sometimes favoritism plays a role in the hiring process but most often, the longer you've been here the easier it is to move up.

Pros

good pay, international exposure, challenge, opportunities to advance are available, other factors include decent benefits and some work flexibility options depending on area in which you work

Cons

laid back attitude in some areas & this leads to teams that are not up to par - reorganizations often based on political motivators and not quality of worker
