Business Outlook
Pros
Truly global multi-cultural environment with great opportunities to work on cutting edge technologies. A lot of smart people (although that number has been dwindling of recent). Good compensation package and "large firm" job stability.
Cons
Risk-averse CYA culture that permeates from the senior management to the rank-and-files. Constant consensus seeking and group-think. Lack of decision making authority and empowerment an all levels. Politics and making yourself look good rule the day, while many projects run for years with nothing getting done. Majority of truly talented innovative people either have left or are looking to leave.
