Pros

Salaries from Management level onwards are at or above market average for this industry. Opportunity to grow and move around countries as you do.

Cons

If you join from a different industry, your previous experience is not valued too much once you start working, or when you want to move internally to a position closer to your profile, again your experience in other industries is not really taken in consideration.
