      Pros

      Benefits growing and ability to transfer

      Cons

      Some of the building use HRBP's as HR Managers and some are not qualified to be in charge let the power go to their head. Then the company loses a lot of good management because it. All buildings should have all levels of HR Management.

      It is possible to be very successful as long as you are prepared to work extremely hard

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Opportunity to learn and practice various disciplines of Software development, project management and support. Attention to detail and making decisions based on data. Often you are pushed out of your comfort zone and when you come out of it you have learned something new and valuable.

      Cons

      To be successful or even to survive you have to work 'really' hard - that involves working a lot of extra hours. The benefits aren't very generous under the banner of staying frugal. Rewarding isn't imminent. You work hard, earn a few stocks that you can touch only after 2 years. So to reap the benefits of your last year's work, you have to work hard for another 2 years. Promotions happen if you work at your next level's capacity on your current level for a long time without giving up. And finally when you reach the next level, the expectations are even higher. If you don't meet them you are back to your old level.
