Pros

Work life balance Stable company Blue-chip MNC

Cons

Serious lack of diversity within the executive committee and senior executive ranks - particularly in view of the fact that more than 80% of the Group's revenue is derived from international markets. The senior executive ranks should have a larger representation of leaders, esxpecially from Asia.

Pros

Good pay and beneifts and I would have stayed longer if they were not moving the positions to India. Was allowed to work on challenging assignments.

Cons

Moving finance function overseas, so there was no room for advancement within the company only the realization that our jobs would end sometime in the near future.
