Pros

Great global footprint. Smart people in all departments and at all levels. Strong strategic focus. People who know how to deliver strong results.

Cons

Some very senior managers show no loyalty to staff. Some emerging markets offices never receive visits from senior managers. Loyalty is not evenly rewarded. Promotions at the highest levels are motivated for reasons other than merit-based.
