Pros

Infrastructure Basel location Facilities Multi-disciplinary

Cons

Woke / ESG-hooked, so performance, experience and education aren't primary promotion criteria anymore. Recent (pandemic) restructurings into "teal"-like organisation (chapters, networks, squad) is a catastrophe: almost zero career progression opportunity combined with a zero accountability culture (self-organised teams, you know, so Chapter Leads not tied into the success of their "members") // Basel fading in relevance relative to US and this is reflected in leadership appointments and work culture.
