Sr Marketing Manager
Pros: Job security. If you just want a comfortable corporate job where you can get by as long as you align yourself to people that influence your GM, then you don't even have to work hard. However, if your passionate about driving impact and doing whats best for customer and company as a whole, regardless if it impacts your direct org and GM, then you're wasting your time. The company won't reward you for those efforts and your efforts will be unnoticed.
Cons: Extremely slow career growth. If you want to get promoted and grow within the company, focus on supporting your GM personal corporate agenda and nothing else because it won't matter.
