Avantages
Strong exposure to policy, legislative, and stakeholder data at scale. Good learning curve in the early years if you are starting your career. Some genuinely capable and hardworking individual contributors across teams.
Inconvénients
- After spending years at a company, I learned that performance and loyalty do not always protect you from opaque decision-making, favoritism, and inconsistent leadership standards. What hurt most wasn’t rejection — it was the lack of honesty and accountability from management. Management quality is the biggest problem, not the work itself. - Career growth is inconsistent and heavily manager-dependent, not performance-driven. - Long-term employees are often taken for granted, with loyalty rewarded by higher expectations rather than recognition or support. - Feedback is frequently vague, delayed, or selectively applied, making growth conversations feel performative. - Decisions around roles, opportunities, and hiring lack transparency and are often misaligned with actual contribution and experience. - Culture messaging does not match day-to-day reality when employees push back, ask hard questions, or reach transition points.
