Pros: Competitive salary and benefits. Real space for short / middle / long-term internal growth within realistic time-span.
Cons: Not newcomer friendly - "self-service" policy in place delays settling in of newcomers by almost one month. Interdepartmental cooperation has a big room for improvement. Very hard corporate tradition regarding procedural steps that very often hinder productivity (too many hierarchical steps for most decisions). Typical "number oriented" corporate philosophy that very often disregards causes of under-performance and focuses on setting new higher sales targets (very often clearly unattainable) made to ensure higher management targets are attained. When compared to main competitors, not a big spender on what comes to investing on the ground and marketing the brand / services.
