By working in a multinational company, you will get a chance to learn different cultures and different perspectives as you experience diversity over time.

It provides access to jobs around the world.

On the other hand, different backgrounds, beliefs and cultures, might cause conflicts, because what is accepted for someone might be unaccepted to another one.

Also, different languages might cause miscommunication, and that will affect negatively towards competency.
