Pluspunten

It's an iconic brand, professional environment, nice hotels in the US and exotic locations. The brand does a good job in creating an employment brand.

Minpunten

On the contrary, the creation of an employment brand is just that. They list all the reasons why you should work there. It's convincing and believable. However, what they don't tell you is that you will work 60 to 70 hours per week as a manager. They will squeeze every inch of productivity out of you until you burn out and quit or you burn out and underperform. You'll get fired as a result. The concept of Work Life/Balance means you can leave work early to pick up your kids. However, you will be working from home until 11p, 12pm, 1am because your boss is working during these hours hence you should be as well. Working long hours is one of many unspoken behaviours. No one dares to bring it up in person and in front of management. However, this issue comes up time and time again during the Employee Engagement Survey. Nothing happens to the feedback. Management does not act.
