Pros

Great company to work for, they keep on trying to make you proud of being their empoyee. Great investment policy, having a clear long-term strategy aiming at excellence. Work-life balance is great creating confidence links with their employees.

Cons

Slightly disorganized structure due to the huge growth to which it has been subjected. A bit too much bureaucracy for almost anything.
