Pros
Excellent Internship and graduates programmes International environment Internal career moves are encouraged (also because it's the only way to remain in the company longer than 2 years)
Kontras
very little work-life balance: to get ahead the only option is to work long hours on a permanent basis. If you don't (because of personal or health reasons) you will hardly be considered for a promotion or a salary increase. short staffed: most departments are constantly short in staff, putting a lot of pressure on the remaining people to deliver the same results as if the team was fully staffed. weak management in most departments : very few will stand up for their people and work together to complete a project successfully. Most managers are not interested in the day-to-day work. NY centric: all the decisions are taken in headquarters, conference calls with EMEA and APAC are just an fyi. re-orgs are really badly managed and communicated: there is no care for people nor recognition for the work done.
