Pros

They have a lot of different competencies and interesting industries they are involved in. You will find some very experienced and skilled people to learn from.

Cons

Leadership Team & Management in Germany is very disconnected from ROW GBUs. Leadership team made several poor hires and awful strategic decisions during my tenure. Plus very short sighted and reactionary which led to demotivating the employee base. Classic "Innovation Theatre" type mentality which is unfortunate because there was a lot of potential.
