Business outlook
Pros
Great opporunities for real freedom very early in your career. When you are told its your job to do x or y, it really is. Management is generally supportive and provides strong coaching. The training that is provided is very good and is common to all employees which creates a strong unity of purpose.
Cons
Expectations for career advancement can be overplayed. When you are told you will be associate director in 8 years this is only true if you are both exceptionally talented and have complete international flexibility. The organisation can also be quite rigid, if you haven't used the right words to describe your idea it probably won't go anywhere.
