Pros
Some Regions have good projects.
Kontras
MRI India had multiple projects serving multiple regions like EMEA, APAC, and NA. My experience was mainly in NA projects, specifically within the NA Living portfolio. The "Leaders" in that folio were not leaders but marketing specialists who can sell coal to jewelers by promoting it as diamonds through self-promotion. These "leaders", have a knack for impressing key people with their public relations style, selling products in which they have played no part, and gaining significantly for themselves. Simultaneously, they put their team members in a miserable position through office politics, sheer amount of favoritism, and the creation of a toxic work environment. They say: Great leaders praise their teams for success and take the blame for failure. This is essentially inverted in case of these "leaders" in India. If you were one of their favorites, you could get a free pass to do nothing and still receive promotions or raises as long as you contribute to gossip in office politics. However, if you are not a favorite, they will ensure your removal from the company by making your life miserable through micromanaging or frustrating you to the core, even if you had dedicated significant effort to the company and projects.
