Pros

High pay, good medical benefits

Cons

Workload is past everyone’s capacity to try to make every dollar matter and get the stock price up. All teams are stretched thin, but TSRs are asked to pick up the slack when other teams aren’t carrying their end of their bargain. When things fall, all the finger pointing goes to the TSR because they’re leading the implementation. Clients recognize how stretched thin everyone is.
