      Pros

      Big international corp. with a diversity of operations and activities.

      Cons

      Currently undergoing change, merging and rationalising core services. This is seen as justification for a big levelling exercise to downgrade staff assessments and is too cost centric. Outsourcing appears to be the primary solution without adequate balancing of the pros and cons. There is an lement of blame culture and some bullying by Teflon coated senior managers
