Pros

Kontras
The company seems to have no clue what it's doing in North America. Executive management is a revolving door, so there's no real strategy other than a top-down cost over quality approach. Instead of fixing organizational problems to save money, there have been rounds of furlough, layoffs, and outsourcing. The company doesn't care about its employees, and many good long-time employees get laid off or leave. Because of this, employees are stressed and stretched thin to try to fill the resulting gaps in business knowledge and technical skills. The pay is average and I went years without so much as a cost of living increase. High performance isn't rewarded. In my experience, going above and beyond got me many more responsibilities without a raise or opportunity to advance. Overall, the company asks you to do more and more with less and less.
