Business outlook
Pros
Opportunities for career progression and professional development, travel (for some), you can have a good work-life balance (but you have to make it happen yourself), modern IT, good pension, interesting work in a not for profit organisation, good equal opps.
Cons
The BC has offices in over 100 countries and like any big organisation it struggles with bureaucracy. Cuts to budgets and pressure of work leads some people to work much longer hours than they are paid for. Change is constant. It used to be the case that the organisation was more prepared to listen to expensive external consultants rather than its own staff (with often more experience.)
