      Pros

      If you want to travel and experience remote locations as well as different cultures, then this job is for you. The pay is pretty decent for recent grads. They offer a pretty good benefits package.

      Cons

      As I said before the pay is pretty good for a recent grad, but during the training period (3 years) you wont have a life. Work schedules are 24/7 on call. You could work 120 hours or more in one week with no over time pay because you are on salary. You're life basically revolves around the company with no time to enjoy the money you are making. You work schedule is pretty simple for the first 10 months of training, 24/7 on call with no days off, unless you ask your manger for one and he/she feels like you deserve it.

      Pros

      Good people at the local level. The work is engaging and challenging.

      Cons

      Too many to count. Career advancements are extremely limited. Pay raises are minimal and don't get close to keeping up with inflation even for top performers. At the corporate level they are using acquisitions to hide massive layoffs. They return billions in profit to investors consistently, but there is still a constant threat of layoffs and multiyear freezes on pay raises even with inflation and solid corporate profit.
