Pros

good variety of customers - you will get experience! lot of customers with the highest level expectations/leading edge high skill level - challenging and supporting: your skills are valued and fostered clear career path good education and mentoring system, hand in hand with training on the job international jobs and assignments, relocation services concise processes and standards thought leadership in many areas

Cons

high workload, especially at "magic deadlines" (quarter/year end) stress coming from diversity (cultural, many timezones, global processes) not a 8-15 job if you are not the best than you are replaceable
