Pros

Casual attire, informal atmosphere, creative colleagues, campus vibe. Can periodically work remotely if you have that relationship with your direct manager. Some managers are genuinely invested in your future and will help you succeed.

Cons

EA base salaries are decent, but on they keep you on the low end unless you are a true negotiator and refuse to accept what's offered. Highly underpaid for workload supporting C-suite level executive's and amount of personal assistant responsibilities expected. 10-12 hour days and accessible at home after hours. Low bonus pay even when you've met or surpassed goals and done all their personal bidding. There should be special compensation for that alone other than O.T.
