Pros
It's a good opportunity for your career and future career ; The name of the company has a high resonance , which should allow you to have a small advantage at an interview for a different company ; The company imposes a multicultural vision all over the company ; The company's vision helps with the forming of the employees , and those who want to improve themselves will have a great opportunity to do it ! The company's " standards " of work regarding work ethics , health and safety and so on , are way above many other companies !
Cons
Because of the general company's view/vision , the company's thinking is somehow rigid , and a new idea might be easily dismiss even if management admits it's good ; Every change has to be run by the HQ in France , which means that every new change will take time till it gets review , approved and applied ; The company encourages a competition between different offices or factories , thing that makes the cultural and professional exchange hard , as every visitor/foreign visitor is vied as a competitor ; It's very hard to advance on the professional ladder even if you got the expertise for that job ! The salaries are not that attractive .
