- Salaries are lower than competitors and the marketplace in general.
- Limited career growth opportunities internally, and your knowledge base is very niche, making it harder to find suitable jobs afterwards.
- You constantly need to promote yourself and your accomplishments to get ahead. No one is keeping tabs of the work you do.
- Admin team is not appreciated at all. There are no raises or promotions there.
- Travel is very taxing, and can be required on very short notice. Some trips can be 3+ weeks at a time.
