Pros

International opportunities are enormous and if you are a talent, you will be targeted. The global presence and the dynamics is really the good side of it. You'll meet a lot of interesting people (mostly senior these days), which can support your career progression if they/you're up for it.

Cons

Engineering culture. Some departments are quite slow, avoid these. Everything is process focused and structured, especially in the back end (product management, sourcing, supply) which is advantageous for some, but inhibits creativity for others. The three business units are quite different though. A lot of gray-haired managers. Experience is what counts.

Pros

Flexible working time, relaxed atmosphere. A lot of varied projects you can work on, with good team atmosphere. Competence system is excellent and helps develop needed skills both from on the job training and off site training. There is also varying levels of challenging work and if you feel you are not being worked hard enough or being challenged enough, you can always get bumped up to work on something that will ask more of you.

Cons

Some disorganization exists, might not be too easy to get promotions and salary is just adequate. There is little time put aside for social interaction among employees like happy hours and such. Its mostly come to work, do you work and go home.
