Pros

- multinational where you can really extend your skills and knowhere, where you can learn and grow

Cons

- if you work in a HQ role (or European HQ role), things are more easy to grow in the company. If you work in a local branch, it is a complete different life and not that easy - continuous SG&A cost cuting projects, cutting to and sometimes even in the bone of the employees. - due to very high senior management rotation, the strategy and tactics change quite often

Great employees, people, and pay. Excellent 401k match

Nothing, slow moving upper management but that’s at every large company

Pros

Decent pay, good PTO and benefits

Cons

Everything else. ZERO training. They hand you a laptop (which is garbage) and say good luck. There is no "team." Everyone is on their own. The senior techs all reached their peak 20 years ago and don't even know what BACnet is. The bureaucracy is unbearable. Ordering a simple part is nearly impossible. There are so many apps you have to check in on everyday and they care more about those metrics than they care about the service their customers are receiving. If you want to get your butt kicked everyday with zero support at a company that specializes in taking advantage of their customers, this is the job for you.
