Pros

Eveyone I work with is smart, open and collaborative. There's always an openness to new ideas and a willingness to try new things. Very refreshing in comparison with the defensiveness and political agendas found in so many other companies.

Cons

Seriously behind the times in the Human Capital management arena. Not proactive in employment branding, talent engagement or workforce planning. Seriously understaffed in HR support functions to the detriment of the organization.

Business Outlook

Pros

Initiative, autonomy and creativity are valued in the international roles. Trust is the base of people management, in my experience, for international roles. Countries seems to have variability in the management style. Innovation is non-stop. I love the freedom that I have.

Cons

A lot of travel: if you dislike airports and airplanes you're better thiking twice before you apply for a regional role. Working with organizations across the globe can make the working day very long from time to time. Working with different countries requires constant adaptation.
