Pros

The salary was phenomenal. The travel was amazing. Was a super generous company, but now due to company's poor performance, they have "hunkered down," where these fringe benefits go away.

Cons

I did the job of 3 people. It is truly impossible to be "caught up," and everything is always urgent and pressing. Too many competing priorities creates a stressful environment. Not only that, but you have too many managers as you report to your business unit manager and then to other managers of business units you support/service on a dotted line basis. Would definitely never recommend this company to anyone.
