Pros
If you can find a group to commiserate with, surviving HQ can be bearable as you will can joke what day they will finally fire you. Work-life balance is decent if you suck up enough to get it.
Cons
Benefits are lacking. Compensation is decent, but if you are truly skilled and knowledgeable, you can probably get paid more somewhere else. Raises are nothing and only match inflation. HQ Legal as a nepotism problem. You will never get noticed or promoted unless you play the suck-up game well. GC promoted someone WITH NO ETHICS OR COMPLIANCE EXPERIENCE into the Chief Ethics & Compliance Officer role... because she had a friendship with him.
