      Pros

      A place with rich amount of information and resources to learn and study on if you have time to understand the company itself. Besides that, the position I had, have work-life balance and a potential of exploration into several touches within departments and offices around the globe. - Work life balance - Ongoing internal and external courses - Fun environment - Lovely colleagues from all departments

      Cons

      The management did not fulfill their promises for keeping people and make them grow. If you are looking for a career advancement, it might not be a good place. Management prefers people who can talk their way out but does not really do their job. - Directions of the company is ever changing with uncleared movements - Low pay increments - Hardly any career advancements (although they are promoting it)

      Good place to work for a few years, but time to move on.

      Pros

      Opportunities to work with a global company, flexibility to work from home, dedicated people. Travel to Amsterdam, London, and some US cities. Upper management, at least in my group, cares about the people.

      Cons

      There isn't a whole lot going on in New York. Lots of activity happening in Amsterdam, London and elsewhere. Managers rely on Powerpoint decks to communicate ideas (must be a b-school thing). Sometimes it takes awhile to get something done. Drab office setups
