Executive Assistant Reviews
What is it like working as an Executive Assistant?

Prefer to be more semi-rurally based.

Amazing flexibility, but limited pay.
Executive Assistant in McKinney:
Pros: Flexibility and a stable paycheck.
Cons: Clients come and go and it affects your pay. My hourly pay is much less than what I would get in an office where I was an employee rather than a contractor and the company gets paid twice what I'm paid.

Under Valued and Under Appreciated.
Executive Assistant in Cambridge:
Pros: Knowing that we are indirectly helping patients
Cons: As an EA you dont get the recognition often due because the role is so broad you're expected to do whatever it takes to get the job done. Others do their job and receive acknowledgement and reward, we o above and beyond and it's just considered part of our job. We get the lowest bonuses when our bosses' bonuses are more than our annual pay. If our bosses don't get their way, we get in trouble. It's all scut work.
