Pros
. The benefits are good. Explore all that are available . Opportunities abound. Don't wait until your perfect in your role before looking to transfer, either laterally or with a promotion. . Initiative is encouraged. Don't be shy. . The mentoring program, but you must join in. . The sparkling, flavored water machine and coffee machines were great.
Cons
. Had to wait a year to publicly comment. . If you don't take control of your career, no one else will unless you get favored treatment of a senior manager or mentor. .20+ year tenure. My mistake was not changing roles every 3 to 5 years. I became proficient in most areas of our multi-facited team. I was RIF'd last July. In hindsight, I believe they thought I was to expensive. . Pay was light. . Commute across the beltway stunk. I'm not moving for a job. .RTO seemed too rigid. Talent has been lost. . Supposed to work 40, but more, sometimes many more were needed. Workload across the team and others in the division weren't balanced. Didn't feel compensated for it adequately.
