Pros

Excellent heritage, some absolutely fantastic co workers. Ross B Shuster was a great and inspiring CEO. It wrongly states he is still the CEO.

Cons

Toxic leadership especially in the main European organisation. Very little progression unless you agree with everything an over promoted manager tells you. No direction or clear strategy from the senior leadership team.
