Pros

Great colleagues Good benefits Established company Handled Covid well for employees - employment protection, care packages etc.

Cons

To move up, you will benefit if you are German and/or Male Little to no understanding of "diversity". Still measure number of female employees as the key diversity measure. For Americans, this is archaic. HR serves other vendors of the company than the employees or the company itself. No central repository of career plan, ratings etc. Upward mobility is solely tied to networking and perceptions
