Pros

Job description can be challenged. You can take part in side projects easily provided you have the time. Topics are usually interesting. Philosophy and vision are nice!

Cons

Poor execution. Way too much politics! I doubt top management is aware of how much politics lie beneath them. DS is an typical example of a company that could not scale. Medium and top management still act as a small company without scalable process or solution (problem-solving usually involve top level executives buy-up for everything).

Pros

This is a good place to get experience if you're interested in Aerospace, IT, Automotive, CAD, Engineering space. There are opportunities to learn and advance your career if you make the right connections.

Cons

Management is very unorganized due to constant shift in priorities. Be prepared to have a new manager assigned quarterly which will impact expectations for performance evaluations. This is a French company that manages business entities around the world. The US and French management are very disconnected. If you are assigned a manager who is based overseas, you will absolutely have a difficult time and minimal work life balance.
