Business Outlook

Pros

Well known global company that is very competitive in all the markets they service. Fast pace environment with little down time. Very Fair Review Process. Promote advancement in education, provide excellent training opportunities, get to work with very knowledgable people and can gain large amounts of experience very quickly. As a new employee you are challanged quickly

Cons

Very large Company and there is little access to management more than one level up. Have to be mobile to move up the salary scale. If not top talent employee in the ranking system it is easy to fall behind on salary compared to outside employement opportunities

Struggling with it's acquisition

Marketing communications manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great reputation on the outside means job opportunities should be good. Pushes employees to excel - they will take as much as you give, but you are generally rewarded. Great opportunities for growth (if in the right division).

Cons

Growth is dependent on your division. Bigger divisions are very political. Security is struggling to integrate acquisitions and is laying people off. Strategy reviews are more about plugging in numbers, so big thinking is minimal.
