Pros

Maersk is proud to be the world's largest shipping company. If you like to learn how to run a global company, this company is the great starting point in your career. I believe it has one of the world's best HR development programs that could help you to advance your career, either within Maersk or in other companies. Many of my colleagues in many countries were recruited aggressively by other big multi-national firms. Highly recommended!!

Cons

If you didn't join the company as a management trainee, your career growth may be limited. It's not always the case but non-management-trainee employees rarely become a senior position. Moreover, during the recruiting process, you'll be required to do personality test which will be used very seriously for hiring decision and for your entire career in Maersk. Although it does helps management to find the right man for the right job, too much focus on it may be harmful.

Pros

The way they do businness is just awesome. No fuzz, no fancy LEAN management ideas, no six sigma and crap like that. It's the Danish way all the way (this is your job, you need this finished by this and that date.. How you get it done is your own problem, but just do it right.) There's a great team spirit, and people are proud of working here. The food is magnificent, the offices are big and well-lit, no flexible office, good furniture, free fruit, lunch and breakfast.

Cons

It's hard to destinguish between top-level managers and normal employees, since we all wear shirts and ties :)
