Pros

Big projects = big challenges, loads of interesting work around Great technical people, albeit some of them freelance rather than permie Work with good technology, don't run things on a shoestring

Cons

People manager setup is bizarre Very strange performance reviews There are on or two VPs who are gibbering lunatics 3000 colleagues are sat "on the bench"

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.
