Pros

Large multinational company with significant financial resources to move forward. The working levels of the company are filled with talented individuals that deserve better leadership.

Cons

Top heavy management in favor of hiring "new blood" from the outside, implying that their own development of people is insufficient. The policies of the company drive individual performance down to the lowest common denominator. Often they are written around the 1% or less of employees that might be an issue. This ensures that even high performers are treated with a lack of trust and diminished respect.

Pros

Broadly a good company if you’re in a senior decision making role.

Cons

HR policies are words only. Years go by without ability to take any PTO and carry over not allowed. Friday afternoons, all HR US employees stop working with all others working past normal business hours and into the weekend including late Friday asks to complete an action by Monday 8:00 AM that was known earlier in the week but only communicated to the employee after Friday business hours. Every Friday. Onboarding structure / sink or swim approach, no training. No sense of belonging unless you’ve worked here 20 years plus. No growth or development opportunities unless tapped on the shoulder. Many openings are never published, again tapped on the shoulder approach despite offering to volunteer. Dismissive company culture. Every Voice Counts initiative is code for: if you do share your voice, you are on a list to not consider for promotion or any projects that would give you more visibility across the organization to foster one’s growth.
