Pros

Benefits - working from home, flexi-hours, 10% pension contribution, discounted healthcare

Cons

Training ban effective for the last 5 years (formerly Alstom), career growth is impossible unless you are tapped on the shoulder. International structure is heavily flawed - your line management is 5 - 8 hours outside your time zone, no visibility of your strengths or efforts. Workforce is not motivated due to constant re-structuring. Doesn't matter how good you are at your job, you might be out of a job next year.
