Pros

Strong process culture and exposure to large, complex enterprise projects that look solid on a CV. Good internal learning resources, structured delivery practices, and generally smart, professional colleagues. Stable workload and predictable expectations compared to smaller, chaotic companies.

Cons

Salaries lag behind the market, especially considering the workload and level of responsibility. Heavy hype around AI without proportional real investment, ownership, or compensation for people doing the work. Bureaucracy is significant, decision-making is slow, and individual impact often feels diluted.

Pros

You get exposure to the very latest technology, and the company is implementing it in impactful, real-world ways. Even if you're not in a tech role, you naturally build deeper understanding in the latest technologies that you may never get exposure to at other companies. Truly global. Even for employees not in global roles, you still get good visibility into the company's global scale and impact.

Cons

Too much process around approvals which reduces speed of execution. Asked to step-up but then insufficient support provided. Two-faced behaviors of managers has become acceptable.
