Pros

Pays extremely well. Great staff benefits.

Cons

Was ostracized and bullied by the other administrative assistants despite various efforts on my part to build relationship with them. Was instructed to learn the ropes from them but there was no proper guidance on job scope and left to figure things out on my own. When I asked for help, they are condescending and superficial. Purposely left me out of group tasks that were assigned to all the assistants as a whole (such as gearing up for the major office move) but they reported to management that they have completed them (without inputs from me). One of the assistants deliberately spread untruths about me and when called out, claimed that she was "only joking". Another older assistant tried to mediate and explained that "she always speaks without thinking". Very obvious that she is trying to sweep the issue under the carpet and protect her colleague. I left after 11 months as the whole experience is too traumatic and distressing. This is not worth the amount of money they are paying me for.
