Pros

ZS has rigorously high standards and brilliant employees. Partners are always looking for new talent and are generally very approachable, so it is easy to find new opportunities on projects that interest you

Cons

Does not staff a bench, so people are sometimes stretched across many projects when work is due and people are not available. Has not yet adjusted to larger size and broader scope of business.

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.
