Good
- Enables the firm to make the best use of its human resources
- Enables the firm to build a cadre of international executives who feel at home working in a number of cultures > can benefit both from local knowledge and hard-to-transfer firm core competencies
Bad
- Government may stipulate that the foreign subsidiaries only hire local citizens
- Can be very costly to implement (training and relocation costs can be high)
- Placement of managers on international ‘‘may create resentment’’
