      Pros

      After reorg, none..... In the chase for shareholder value, company forsake strategy, innovation, localisation, empowerment, transform company into top-down business-led culture for technology company.

      Cons

      Plenty. R&D measured using Salesforce=No more smart goals setting. Just rely on your sales partner for your performance rating=performance rating not based on own performance, but dependent on others. Regionalised reporting structure means limited career opportunities. Subsidiaries with smaller sales volume may never get promoted.

      Pros

      Good pay and decent benefits.

      Cons

      Current management is completely disconnected from the needs and concerns of individual contributors. Which appears to be on purpose, as the company is in an active strategy of both strategic layoffs and of driving attrition in general, so everyone's stress levels are super high. The head of HR just quit so I can only assume worse labor actions are on their way. Also, be ready to not have a desk but still be required to come in 4 days a week.
