Pros

It's the best place to have more global vision and a lot of opportunities to learn new things. I could recommend people who like this.

Cons

It may be challenging to keep local and group expectations. Still there are way to go for local sites to have that global vision and corporate culture.

Pros

Nice friendly people; Work/life balance taken seriously; OK pay compared to other companies; Good Benefits; Excellent 401K with matching

Cons

Some IT groups are badly managed; Promotions are rarely given and only to those that are manager's personal friends; Not sure about the future of the company in the US. Changes technology direction too often, too many standard procedures, too much documentation - waste a of time and money.
