      Pros

      Stable and secure. Now the company has initiated many changes and the prospective looks good

      Cons

      Depends on the job. Some can be boring and very repetitive, especially if you are nog t someone who likes to give suggestions on improvements.

      Pros

      international company with huge brand great opportunity to master change management with strategy changing every year salary and bonuses are paid on time loads of good people around

      Cons

      every communication is Denver-centered and matters little to the non-US based employees (both WU and WUBS) HR communication reg top managements is very detailed - but communication reg issues that matter more to the regular employees is less so a lot of change within, that mainly translates is cost cutting and layoffs
