Pros

There are many opportunities to learn and build cross-areas experience and there is a great sense of meaning in everyday work ( contributing in bringing power and productivity for a better world)

Cons

Job grading system is obsolete and rewarding more the ones joining the companies from outside rather than the grown inside performers. Salaries and job grades are managed as a secret matter due to the institutionalized multiple exceptions ( personal grades)
