Pros

Great internal freedoms. International environment. Much more dynamic than the typical German company. A lot of personal responsibility is expected (there is little control). You can also make a mistake. The company is very committed to change and is driving Diversity, LGBT and Woman initiatives

Cons

Due to the global structure unfortunately too much influence from external (offshore / US). One size fits all is no longer valid today and especially in the European and above all German market, there must be a concentration and above all a targeted orientation on the local market. That has not arrived in management yet.
