Pros

Once hired your recruitment needs to be justified at a pretty high up level, so job security is virtually ensured Lots of opportunities for travel and personal development/training Flexible schedules around deliverables and work from home Compensation is mostly 75% of industry average so I would call it fair

Cons

Large matrix organization; a lot of conflicts and politics to navigate through Low promise of creative juice use as most policies standardized through regional hubs like Houston, Singapore, London or Hague A lot of fear of speaking because of European specifically British undertones; leaders say one thing on your face and behind the doors have a different opinion altogether at times Slow decision making; immense bureaucracy and red tapism
