Pros
Your work has an impact on the business of the organisation. You get a lot of responsibility which comes with accountability. Also, you can take as many initiatives as you want, justifying that it has an impact quantitatively, directly or indirectly. No one that comes here is perfect, so making mistakes is natural, and learning through them is more important and expected. You have an opportunity to grow and learn. The environment is very collaborative. Since most of my tasks involve talking to a lot of stakeholders, taking them on board, there is constant need to align the business goals with departmental KPIs. This is challenging as well as exciting for me. Also, there is a good work-life balance. The company is financially stable which is also important for your career. There are people from various backgrounds with transferable skills. You do not have to have an experience in moving industry to work here. You just need to have skills that are transferable to any kind of industry. There are many social activities which I personally enjoy and is a good opportunity to socialise and know people from the organisation.
Cons
Initially, you might feel that people are a bit reserved, it takes a while to break into other circles, especially other departments. Once you do, you are always welcome. You do not get the credibility because you at a certain position, you really need to prove yourself by been assertive and by showing results. Salary is bit too low. Sometimes, things slow down due to changing hands every few months, this also leads to slow implementation.
