Pros

Competitive salary & benefits Borderless career (opportunities to move across function) Structured training program for HR and Technical Centralization of HR Administration Overall, good company and culture with plenty of employee assistance programs.

Cons

No structured development or leadership programs for employees in core non-technical functions (i.e. sales, finance, etc). Sometimes leaves employees stagnant in their careers. Some HR administration burdens the function causing more experienced professionals turning into administrators for 50% or more of their job. Sometimes the borderless career concept causes underqualified managers being moved into roles where their specialized knowledge is not the greatest due to an immediate need. This causes issues in the team and the function or higher turnover. Poor mentorship culture or attitude. Many managers are burdened or do not have time to mentor and coach younger professionals in the company, especially in the functions.
