- Good work life balance. - Global exposure and mobility. - Good career options. - Focused on customer needs. - Stabilized processes.

Cons

- Changes are slow. More bureaucratic than required. - Projects that involve multiple product groups and multiple country organizations are a pain. Tendency to make margins on internal sale of products. - Salaries not amongst he highest (but not too bad either). - Some of the managers are not "management material" but have become managers because of seniority.
