Pros
• Opportunity to work across multiple functions • Fast-paced environment with exposure to different business areas • Colleagues at the operational level are generally supportive
Cons
• Management lacks clear structure, resulting in disorganised workflows and frequent changes in priorities • Business direction and expectations are often unclear, making it difficult to align and execute effectively • Absence of standard operating procedures (SOPs), leading to inconsistent processes and inefficiencies • Limited transparency in decision-making and communication from leadership • Responsibilities are delegated without proper briefing or context, yet accountability is pushed downward when outcomes do not meet expectations • Feedback is often indirect and discouraging, which can negatively impact morale and confidence • Limited sense of ownership at leadership level, with execution risks frequently shifted to subordinates
