Cons

Long work hours Do whatever it takes attitude to meet client needs. Which means usually working overtime on the weekends. Corporate reimbursement policy is crap. No corp credit cards, do you own expenses, which becomes hard when you are working so much, Have to think 2x before you do a late night dinner or otherwise

Pros

Strong culture and collaborative environment with smart, supportive colleagues. Admins are trusted partners and get exposure to senior leadership, which provides great learning opportunities. Compensation and benefits are competitive compared to similar roles.

Cons

Workload can be high, with admins often supporting multiple stakeholders while also providing backup coverage. Expectations can vary widely depending on the team, which can create inconsistency and pressure. Career growth paths are less structured and require a lot of self-direction. Work-life balance can be challenging at times, especially across time zones.
