Pros

If you are in an eligible bonus position, you get a decent bonus paycheck at the end of the year. You could have either a good or bad experience, honestly it depends what team you are on and who your manager is.

Cons

Working with legal is the worst experience. They will tell you to do something to make things run smoother for you to go and do it, then you turn it in and guess what? They don’t review it because they are too busy. So you rush to do things to make their lives easier for no reason basically. They will approve things for certain people and you could send them the exact same thing and they forget it was approved - so inefficient for others seriously. Also not all managers are great, some really are bad yet they are called managers. Sometimes you have awesome days but other days you get overworked. This isnt the worst company but some departments really do need assistance.

Pros

Opportunity to work across multiple teams and business areas

Cons

In my experience, expectations were consistently high, but direction, alignment, and communication were often inconsistent, making execution more difficult than necessary Workload and pace were difficult to sustain over time, with extended periods of high pressure and limited support The environment often felt like a “figure it out” culture, with limited guidance and unclear processes Accountability for outcomes appeared heavily concentrated in this role, even when results depended on multiple teams or factors outside of direct control Workload distribution did not always feel balanced across teams Team dynamics at times felt more competitive than collaborative Communication around priorities and decisions was not always clear I observed relatively quick turnover within the role, with some individuals leaving not long after starting Lack of consistent structure and established processes made it difficult to navigate expectations and operate effectively
