Vantaggi
* Excellent mid-level managers who genuinely care for their employees: taking the time to train and mentor, know and understand the person, not just the employee * Collaborative environment: you get to work with everyone * Ability to customize your career path * Ability to work remotely as needed
Svantaggi
* Generally poor communication from other international divisions, especially headquarters * No overall vision for the company from HQ (at least not communicated to other divisions) * Company-wide decisions often made purely on an economic basis (read: anything cheaper is perceived to be better), discounting the long term benefits to more costly alternatives * HQ can, at times, disregard the insight and experience of internal experts in favor of the pre-selected and preferred pathway.
