MarCom Department is a great place to work.
Pros
Visionary leadership in MarCom Department, willing to change with the times and adapt to new technologies Excellent professional development program, if the employee is willing to take advantage of it Department management is willing to let employees build their career within the department around their own strengths - always open to suggestions Upward mobility, yearly raises, yearly bonuses, 401k match, open door policy
Cons
Clunky creative design department - far too much depends on the leader of the department, and she is an individual with her own agenda. If you don't fit in her agenda, watch out. Shady-seeming executive management that doesn't tell the whole story or keep promises Workload can get overwhelming in a hurry if not well planned Politics - people get promoted or stick around simply because they have been there for a long time, not necessarily because they excel at the job HR department is a joke Some PDL's are more active advocates than others, if you get a lazy one you may not get the bonuses or raises you feel you deserve
