Pros

Competitive compensation and benefits. Many talented, collaborative people across the organization, though experiences can vary significantly by team and leadership. Generally good work-life balance for most corporate roles. Opportunity to work on global, complex projects with broad business impact.

Cons

- Executive leadership culture is highly political and, in some cases, toxic, with decision-making concentrated at the top. - Success depends on fitting established leadership styles and expectations rather than encouraging diverse perspectives. - Employee feedback and data have little, if any, influence on decisions when they conflict with perceived priorities or a leader's beliefs. - Professionalism and leadership quality vary significantly across senior leaders, with some interactions are simply dismissive or even disrespectful. - Frequent reorganizations, leadership changes, and workforce reductions create uncertainty and make it difficult to sustain long-term initiatives.
