Pros

Large range of opportunities due to the scale of the company. Varied roles and a good internal job posting and aplication system. Olympic swimming pool in the basement,

Cons

Sometimes too big a company. Felt a little impersonal. A lot of stigma attached to the company and high regard held to those who had operated in difficult/unpopular/controversial country assignments. A lot of lip service paid to 'going green' but few significant moves within the business.
