Pros

International opportunities that allows you to travel a lot as well as to have interaction with other cultures. You can be given a lot of freedom (if you have the right manager). It is your own responsibility to build and maintain competencies and getting the right professional experiencies.

Cons

Top Management interfears in detalies lower down in the organization.There is a lot of internal politics that is more important compared to producing results. Whan making promotions are "friends" and "old mates" used for getting a promotion. External candidates are reqruited to higher positions with argument that "diversity" is beneficial - but the loss of "productive hours" and motivation are neglected.
