Would you take this job? Why—or why not?

If you’re considering it, ask who owns budget and how many events you’d juggle at once; that drives burnout more than anything. Quick tip from my last enterprise gig: pre-register every vendor and delivery 48-72 hours ahead so security badges and loading dock times are set - saved us from two near-misses on exec all-hands.

At my last on-site role, a 1-page request form plus a 15‑min weekly stakeholder standup cut changes by about 50% and made the herding-cats part a lot less wild.
