Pros

Great pay (higher than any other company in the region); real global environment, where you can modify the ways of work from another region of the globe; opportunity to travel abroad; lots of benefits, bringing the feeling that the company really cares about its employees; great approachability with senior leaders and board members.

Cons

There's no limit for activities to be pushed at the worker; unrealistic work hours for some teams (44 week-hours plus 10 weekend hours); policies about career path and growth make it seem wonderful, reality is completelly different; lots of junior managers without previous management experience using analysts work to grow and forgetting about analysts later; brown nosing environment generates frustration in hard working employees; yearly mandatory develment plan doesn't necessarily lead employees to the positions they wish to reach.

Pros

Great people who believe in a common mission. Strong leadership and support.

Cons

Budgets and decision making for technical programs are centralized at a high level with little to no consideration for how it affects individual programs and their unique needs. Heavy bureaucracy involved in setting up simple things.
