Pros
Compensation is genuinely competitive — base, RSUs, the works. And for a long time, the culture matched it. People were collegial and generous. Work-life boundaries were real: when you were off, you were off. No one bothered you. Family came first and colleagues respected that.
Cons
Leadership substitutes broad vision statements for actual strategy. In Business Marketing specifically, there’s no clear direction — no revenue goals, no specific targets to rally around. The gap gets quietly handed to senior ICs, who are expected to fill in what leadership won’t define. Meanwhile, the culture has shifted into pure survival mode. People protect their own scope. Projects get driven hard through a performance cycle, then dropped. Nothing compounds. There’s a lot of motion and very little continuity. It feels like the implicit message is: be grateful you’re here. That’s not leadership.
