Pros

Good salary, aligned to market. Some career opportunities.

Cons

1) Do not respect employee contract. 2) HR does not help employee even when there is a clear violation of their rights. 3) Lots of travel. 4) Too much government interference : it looks like it is still a government ruled company. 5) NO incentive for skill improvement. The company does not offer MBAs (as sponsor), just a few in company training.
