Pros

- Let's you experience multiple roles and depts in 18 months (max. 4) - Possibility to go for an exchange abroad for 3 months, living and travel costs are covered by the dept.

Cons

- Have to manage all logistics, connecting with higher-ups for transfers or exchange phases on your own with bare minimum help from HR - Always under EBIT Protection Program - A lot is dependent on the type of team and manager you get. If you get a good, organized, well-connected and motivated manager things are going to be pretty smooth and you'll love the time there. Otherwise you will have to do everything on your own
