Business Outlook
Pros
Lots of autonomy, respect for the role, EAs hardly ever get laid off, pay is good.
Cons
All of the above depends heavily on your manager and your organization. I was in one org that was turning highly toxic, so I moved laterally to a completely different org and it was much better. Some EAs are afraid to push back against their bosses, so they're miserable. Path to promotion is murky and arbitrary
