Pros

Great work environment, strong culture, extremely high ethics, superb leadership. Of course, there may be some locations in which this is stronger than others, but in general one finds very comfortable expressing ideas without fear of retaliation, we get fairly enough recognition for the things we do well and fair feedback on the things we do not do so well. I am very proud of the ethics of the company and I have never feared doing the right thing independent of the consequences that may carry. The piece of mind that this provides is priceless!!!

Cons

Compensation may be below average for similar responsibilities; it is tough to get a salary increase.

Pros

Big Global company. Opportunities to move around, especially for Americans. Great benefits.

Cons

Low salaries for senior levels. Highly politicised place, you have to watch your back. Performance is irrelevant, your internal network and years with the company and, most importantly, your desk is what matters. Incompetence in the top levels.
