Pros

Glassdoor requires 5 words here

Cons

Incessantly restructuring without evaluating impact on business continuity... personally affected by 5 restructurings in the last 12 months. Processes are outdated, redundant, conflicting or lost - very challenging to get anything done. Poorly trained leaders promoted based only on sales performance. Culture values appearances above all - a gorgeous new downtown office where the wifi doesn't work and there are 8 call rooms for several hundred people. Salary below industry standard. Negligible opportunities for professional development. Toxic work culture. Medical is considered a support function and increasingly excluded from strategic discussions.

Big company. Good office benefits.

Cons

Salary is relatively low. Turn over of staff at EU level is so high that they get retention bonuses but all the good people have left
