Nightmare Experience in Marketing Department
Pros
People outside of senior management are awesome human beings.
Cons
Marketing leadership during my tenure there was an absolute loose cannon, vascilating wildly between completely clueless and out of touch to micromanagement bordering on paranoia. Marketing leadership is typically the bottleneck for strategy development and to get approvals, then blames marketing ops manager if things don't go as planned. Expects marketing operations manager to adequately direct timing of other teammates workloads, but those team mates don't report to the marketing operations manager, so essentially everyone is set up for failure. Constantly changing priorities, saying one thing and doing another, then exploding at people with disrespect. I waited a while to write this, but one of the two team mates hired during my tenure there also quit and I believe the person who took over my position also quit less than a year in because marketing leadership is a nightmare.
