Pros

Very high level of professional culture, team work, respect for each other, ethics and code of conduct. Functional expertise was utlitized at the maximum and at the highest level. Very good culture and value system.

Cons

In an environment ring fenced with numerous policies and procedures, there is very little room for innovation and entrepreneurship. Hence career growth is steady but slow.
