Pros

Compelling mission with significant global reach and visibility Opportunities to engage with senior leaders and high-level strategy early on Work that has the potential to be meaningful when adequately supported and structured

Cons

In my experience, expectations, norms and priorities shifted frequently without clear communication, making it difficult to understand performance standards or succeed consistently in the role Feedback patterns were inconsistent and at times contradictory, creating confusion and persistent self-doubt rather than clarity or growth False urgency was common and often introduced without alignment on scope, authority, or decision-making, leading to unreasonable, reactive work and avoidable stress. There was a noticeable absence of psychological safety, particularly when asking clarifying questions or seeking alignment Over time, the combination of unclear expectations, inconsistent feedback, and shifting priorities resulted in significant emotional and psychological strain. High prevalence of gossip and trash talk culture; over sharing and asking about people's personal lives.
