Pros

International and Local opportunities. As well as, opportunity to gain experience for different lines of business if you are willing to relocate.

Cons

Limited development and progression in some functions. Engineering Degree driven company with way too many people that don’t ever use their degree. Plus, because they desire degree so much, that limits opportunities for people with real experience but no degree.

Pros

Overall was the experience was an enjoyable one while working there, and the pay was very competitive and above average as long as you didn't mind the daily commute into downtown.

Cons

The biggest drawback was the internal squabbles that would go on behind the scenes, that wouldn't be visible to some visiting or is new but it doesn't take long to pickup on the various clicks and whom belong to which... Actually really sad considering the company is an internationally known company with prestige but the battle of the various clicks was very high schoolish, if you weren't a permanent employee you felt very vulnerable...
