Executive Assistant Reviews
What is it like working as an Executive Assistant?
November 2015
Good job for an arounder.
Executive Assistant:
Give it a go, the only way is up ;)
November 2015
Excellent corporation, benefits and work environment.
Executive Assistant:
Pros: The pay and benefits are definitely above average, the work environment is casual and telecommuting is mostly always an option. I was lucky enough to be paid hourly based on a yearly salary and therefore got overtime.
Cons: Not much of a work-life balance. Lots of work but I think that's to be expected since customers/clients/contacts are global.
November 2015
Stress level, perks, the management.
Executive Assistant:
