Pros

The management team was largely out of touch which meant there was little oversight of my day-to-day work. I was largely left to do what I wanted.

Cons

The lack of management oversight and management being out of touch with what was going left lack of recognition of how under-resourced the business was. I was expected to do the workload of ~3 to 4 people in other companies I have worked in. There was no work/life balance. Dealt with bullies in the workplace. Those bullies were untouchable because they had been with the company for so many years. There is very little opportunity for advancement. Internal candidates within the regulatory group were continually passed over for advancement opportunities.

Pros

There are many non-traditional benefits that help with work life balance. The company’s brand and global reach are undeniable and reinforce the company’s compelling Mission.

Cons

People are expected to deliver above-average results with below-average processes. The stock’s performance has earned this pressure, but there is no obvious, quick path to improvement. Your experience in that corporate environment will depend on your supervisor either being a leader or a manager.
