The Corporate Work Review
A typical work day would include number crunching, working with creative individuals in marketing and stressing about campaign deadlines. Co-workers are always ready to lend a helping hand Biggest lesson learnt: Always cover yourself. In the corporate world when you are up against the ropes, there isnt anyone else to help you but yourself. I truly enjoy interacting with the marketing team. they keep an active and lively vision of our brands the most challenging would be to work towards inhumane expectations of the business environment
Pros: Promotions are available if you seize the opportunity, great brands to work on, flexible schedule
Cons: mounting economic pressure on businesses to stay afloat, ridiculous timing expectations
