Pros
Very high quality, intelligent colleagues whom act quickly Good remuneration generally Great brands, aligned to a true orgainsiational mission Fast progression through roles for some Nicely decorated open plan offices
Kontras
A lot of sometimes uneccesarry depth on internal reporting & presenting focus Meritocracy still needs networking to get you somewhere in some cases Almost no structured personal development, beyond a twice yearly plans & reviews, which are often delivered as an afterthought when the deadlines loom So focused on annual targets that sometimes the right long term strategy is not 'approved' Good performance or initiatives can be dismissed or over-looked if not communicated in a certain style Upward & downward feedback can be lacking in structure, frequency and respect
