Pros

Benefits are decent Direct management cares Flexible work schedule within reason Seeming stability (at least for my position)

Cons

-Pay not reflective of experience/skill/product knowledge/specific region. -Limited vertical growth potential, only horizontal to different positions -Middle management care more about appearances to upper management and power points than their employees. Not attentive to differing employees under them and group them as a whole despite differing specialties. -Upper management tend to talk a lot without saying anything of substance. Dismiss employee concerns as baseless and insisting on their correct course using flowery vague wording. -Excessive investment into German counterparts despite repeated difficulties and failures. It's ultimately a German company and the bias is strong despite the US being a substantial market that is serviced primarily by US products.
