Pros

- Opportunity to meet people with true dedication for the brand - if you make it to the director level you are basically sorted for life - the company will take care of you - quick job rotation is still possible but could change as European HQ is slimming fast - working in true European environment

Cons

- company cannot seem to grasp the technology changes of 21st century , in every aspect from product development to ICT structure - absolutely NO talent management unless you made it to director level (see Pro's), so lot of good people ending up leaving out of frustration - company culture is allergic to risk taking, thus a lot of blaming and "ass-covering" going around - decision process is an outer joke - not enough emphasis on hiring process - so difficult to bring in the people that will break this heavy mould
