Pluspunten
- Professional staff to work with - Exciting relevant projects with current technology - Excellent training and team support - Flexible scheduling when not working on large projects with fixed dates - A culture of continuous improvement -A diverse global environment (although each specific location may not be diverse, the entire global team structure is). I have had the opportunity to work with dozens of countries and individuals around the globe. - Focus on high quality
Minpunten
- Compensation is on par for comparable companies/industry but is lower than the major consulting arms; but then again the positions are fixed, lower travel and much safer (an acceptable trade of secure position vs. salary). - Continuous improvement means time spent collecting data and analyzing data(along with completing standard development work). Improved quality means higher workload and keeping busy. - Work life balance is normally fair (as German labor laws tend to assist globally). However, expect to be on large global projects that require commitment. I would not consider work life balance a con, but rather an expectation of duty for strategic projects.
