Pros

Experience. Understanding how managers should not behave and treat employees.

Cons

Beaurocracy Nobody making a decision Lots of arguements about roles and responsibilities Lack of resource and constant downsizing, squeezing people who are left in the roles. If your face fits, you are fine, if not you are overlooked and demoralised. Great divide between senior management and staff. Bullying is rife in BT, and managers can get away with it. The useless managers, at all levels, get on, and the good ones are overlooked. Managers are given NO training, so often leads to ineffectual management of teams. The people who talk the loudest often are the ones who are courted by Senior Management and reviled by their staff.

Pros

Benefits are better than most US companies. You get twice or triple the numbers of days off per year.

Cons

Focus is more on originating company location for group events and emails. Due to time zone differences, it can be difficult to work with others without adjusting your schedule. It is difficult to get promoted outside originating country. Roles are few and far between in the US.
