Pros

It's a spring board into the world of medical evacuations and assistance, as turnover is high and there are many alumni, now working for their competitors. Increase dissatisfaction among clients leaving to sign new contracts with competitors.

Cons

No upward mobility, especially if you are not European or French. No trust for decision making. Company offers most expensive service with high profit margin possible to their clients while squeeze and suppresses employees salaries. Worldwide, but 60-75% of the company is clueless and just shift responsibility for task to other people and wasting time. When they are done with you, they will just force you until you can't stand it anymore and leave. Unreasonable and poor management. Do yourselves a favor and look else ware, don't say I didn't warn you. No respect to doctors. I joined with 8 other doctors and half left the company within 12-15 months.

Pros

Non stop roller coaster ride - you get to rest a while, and suddenly you're flat out, fullspeed ahead. Unique working environment - there are no other companies with a similar profile Encourages you to perform to limits you never thought possible, not only for yourself, but generally, for humankind. There are days where you feel that you have superhuman abilities.

Cons

Not for the faint hearted There are days where you feel that the whole day is a hangover.

Pros

Exposure to international health systems

Cons

learning that International SoS is basically an insurance company that uses an actuarial approach to everything, and overcharges clients by billing for even the most redundant and trivial transaction. high pressure to generate more transactions. Your appraisal and job security depend on churning.
