Pros
Learned a lot and worked with some very smart people
Cons
Looking back on this, my experience at RPA was extremely unhealthy. Long hours, low pay, and a team that considered everything an emergency. Office gossip was also prevalent by everyone from assistants to directors. RPA tries too hard to have a "fun" culture by putting on courtyard happy hours every few weeks, but it's not enough to mask what actually goes on in the agency. Comparing my experience at RPA to my experience at my new agency, I'm surprised I don't have serious PTSD.
