Pros

Everyone is working hard, mostly highly motivated Dynamic environment with lots of global rotations Up or out mentality allows for plenty opportunities Easy to get an Expat assignment Amazing products giving the internal limitations set by missing budgets and staffing

Cons

Everyone (the CEO aside) is on a rotational program, no experts wanted Keep people on their toes by not allowing to build expertise and comfort zones No budgets for anything, crazily understaffed projects. Lots of people turnover or drop out due to mismatch between workload and tools/budget provided Leadership with some, at least a little, familiarity with motor vehicles would be great. The products are not known nor understood. Benchmarking with other companies does not happen Information is not shared within the company. Silos everywhere! Despite up or out - salaries not sufficient to aim for early retirement - an then watch VPs go unemployed at early 50ies.
