Pros
- Work/Life balance - Very prestigeous in the region - Rapidly growing in size and relevance - Great place to gain an understanding of Latin America - Salary is slightly above average for region. Benefits are amazing - Great way of breaking into regional politics - Company is going through a change management exercise to try to raise its game level
Cons
- Not a meritocracy. Extremely political management style - Few opportunities for promotion - Low lying glass ceiling. All upper managers are selected for external or internal political motives - HR has a reputation of disregarding employee contracts and making false promises (get everything in writing) - No trainning - No empowerment - Company loves yes men. Criticism is highly frowned upon - Headquarters is in Caracas. If you are relevant, you will sooner or later have to spend some time living in such a dangerous and disagreable city
