Pros

The ability to work remotely was a great benefit.

Cons

Where to begin. The salary was below industry standards for similar roles. Have to use PTO to cover holidays. The company lacked enough project resources to adequately handle a new client onboarding. Upper management agreed to move forward with a project without having a signed or otherwise agreed to SOW, however, management did not alert the project teams to move forward so there was a delay after kick off which soured the client. Lack of managerial support or internal project team support. Lack of understanding how to engage new clients and begin, manage a project really made the job of project manager impossible to pull off. Scheduled one on ones with my immediate manager and he skipped out on them for five months straight.

Pros

- Opportunity to work on interesting, high-impact projects. - Flexible work environment that supports work/life balance. - Many talented and knowledgeable colleagues across the organization.

Cons

- Leadership dynamics can feel misaligned, particularly when less experienced teams are driving decisions that impact more tenured professionals. - Career growth feels unclear and, at times, unattainable without the "right" visibility or relationships. - Cross-functional friction is common, and navigating disagreement does not always feel supported or safe. - Compensation and advancement do not consistently reflect market expectations or individual contributions. - Organizational priorities can feel disconnected from the day-to-day experience of employees.
