Business Outlook

Pros

Good Visibility among the top management or at least head of the departments. Store employees are neglected to the core and their opinions are ignored. Good company for level 2 and above.

Cons

Compensation and benefits are really bad. Really bad environment and absolutely no culture in the company. Employee satisfaction is last priority.

Business Outlook

Pros

Large corporate power backing you against the market forces (competitors and suppliers). Lot of traveling and opportunities to learn from practices of other colleagues. Work ethics and culture in many countries on very high level.

Cons

Too many management layers and positions which often contrast in objectives and targets. Sales-driven management causes stress among employees. Often bureacracy gets in the way
