Pros

Superb co workers and several excellent Managers and consultants Occasional Client visits abroad Occasional challenging project which is different from the usual VBA coding and backend data handling

Cons

Terrible work life balance Crazy Work hours and some crazy managers, no uniformity in work allocated. All the boring work gets shipped overseas. Usually people end up working both the US and the Indian work hours!! Things are getting worse as the admin cuts costs in the Indian offices and shaves off several benefits.

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.
