Pros

I met some lifelong friends and I learned so much about the industry.

Cons

The work/life balance is awful, expect to work crazy hours. The women in management treat younger female colleagues worse than their male counterparts. I was reprimanded by a female manager for being out on unexpected leave due to a medical emergency. When I notified HR of the horrendous treatment from the female manager, they did nothing about it. Aside from this awful treatment, I constantly heard racial comments being made by colleagues about Hispanics. ZS likes to put a front of inclusivity but in reality it is a toxic environment.

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.
