Pros

Strong emphasis on workplace safety culture, good business controls

Cons

- Unfair and ruthless forced ranking process; on paper should be performance driven but like all human controlled activities get subject to office politics of senior executives to settle scores or 'perceived threats' - Military-like workplace environment where that espouses only the top down approach Absence of 360 degree feedback - A very evident double standard in faster career development of HQ country (US) employees compared to employees from other parts if the world especially Asia and Africa (much slower) - Reduced emphasis on training / technical development of employees - Limited opportunity of career development

Pros

Good opportunities for networking and travel.

Cons

A significant HR issue between interns occurred during my internship and was handled very poorly. Once the matter came to HR’s and leadership’s attention, it was not officially resolved until months after the internship had ended. The VP privately apologized for the situation, but the overall response was inadequate and felt as though the situation was being swept under the rug. The lack of timely communication and follow-up created a very uncomfortable environment for a young intern and significantly impacted what was otherwise a positive internship experience.
