Pros

Through my ERG involvement, I've gained legitimate leadership experience managing strategy and budgets that directly feeds my professional growth, not just "extracurricular" credit. I advise executives who actually implement our recommendations, I've watched heritage month programming evolve into substantive cultural drivers with real resources behind them, and I've built cross-functional sponsor relationships that broke me far beyond my departmental silo. Most importantly, I bring my full authentic self to work every day knowing my perspective shapes company decisions, not just decorates them.

Cons

I can't bring our pets to work.
