Not worth it

Pros

Decent pay, nice perks, global presence. Opportunity to meet great people across wide range of industries. Great teamwork at the grassroots level.

Cons

Insane amount of politics, horrible work-life balance, you will likely report to people who you don't like or respect, and you will not be adequately rewarded for the effort you put in. Definitely a "Masters of the Universe" vibe from some senior execs, expecting to be treated like royalty.
