Pros

Fantastic benefits! Competitive salary. Worked closely with upper management and I saw how hard they try to please everyone, sometimes to their detriment. Several ungrateful employees really took advantage. This is one of those places where it is exactly what you make of it. They would greatly prefer to promote from within - you just have to earn it. If you want to coast through and just draw that paycheck this might not be the place for you.

Cons

Language and cultural differences can be a little tough. The company structure as a whole is very complex and changes constantly, so it can be very confusing as to who is responsible for what.

Pros

A company that is gloably present and gives the opportunity to travel if you wish to. Good colleague, and atmosphere. A good team spirit overall.

Cons

Lots of politics, which causes power to spread unequally: this prevents good decisions from being taken. Centralised power in Paris, where all decisions seems to be taken, with no or little understanding of what is really happening on sites. Too much useless reporting, which causes inefficiency.
