Pros

Lots of really smart, great people who can turn out to be really good friends as well. Generally a challenging environment where you were asked to learn a lot very quickly.

Cons

Pretty long hours and sometimes insensitive managers. Some of the most lucrative projects management can be really boring for the junior team members (e.g. incentive compensation administration, market research tracking reports)

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.
