Pros

Great opportunity to work in a global organization with direct exposure to unique needs of developing markets. Despite excellent learning opportunities and comp, moving up is unlikely unless you are British.

Cons

This is the right place to work for professional development or are strictly interested in maximizing your comp. However, it is worth noting that few employees resign or retire. Rather, most are let go as a result of a downsizing initiative which occur every 18 months like clockwork. The addition of Emma Wamsley as president in 2010 has had little positive effect on the organization's business model or performance, adding fuel to the already underperforming division.
