Pros

work-life balance location people nice good pay/bonus good benefits things move slow and steady

Cons

because things move slow it can be frustrating and at times boring can be political and siloed feels like it lacks innovation I was told the best way to succeed is "lie in the grass" which was not motivating - I did not take this approach and succeed to build relationships and relevance in my role talks about psychological safety but found this lacking don't do reviews and lack in providing productive feedback many managers have never managed and need training and tools

Pros

- began work with an amazing team and culture - exposure to major IP and high-profile campaigns - some genuinely talented and passionate colleagues - fast-paced environment that builds skills quickly - healthcare is decent - some fun on-lot perks

Cons

- poor work/life balance exceptions from SPTV lower and upper management - unmanageable workload left little room for the collaboration and meeting engagement leadership expected - upper management changes resulted in reactive restructuring with little regard for team culture or continuity - inconsistent management: some leaders failed to empower or advocate for their teams - clear office politics which interfere with business decisions - quick burnout when management fails to course-correct workload - leadership set workloads based on personal work style rather than sustainable team norms - little to no growth opportunities - 4 days in office is excessive and unnecessary
