Pros
There are some truly great people who care about making the company better, and usually those people are not in a position of power. The benefits here are good, and there are a lot of perks that come with working the job.
Cons
-Zero room for growth. Depending on your department, you will be micromanaged to a T. You also will be expected to know EXACTLY what the job entails and not ask questions or try to ask for help because you will get ridiculed and treated like you are stupid. You are also expected to be on a short deadline with your work even if the project is already weeks behind at that point, and if you dare work past that deadline, expect to hear about it. it's easier for management to point fingers than shoulder some of the load to keep things moving at a solid pace. -Another con is that instead of management or department heads taking any sort of blame for their shortcomings, if you are the low man on the totem pole, any single thing the company does wrong is somehow your fault. You are always the whipping post, and management doesn't want to hear you call them on their mistakes. -Certain managers don't care about getting to know those they are working with or try to cultivate a good working relationship. To them, you are just another cog in a machine that is breaking down each and every day. -No matter how good you feel you are doing or seem to do, your best may never be good enough. If you can learn to be blind to the favoritism put forth by company executives, then this job is for you.
