[10] THE BURN WARD (UNFILTERED COMPLAINTS)

* The stark reality of the role, scraped from Reddit, Blind, and anonymous career boards.
"I see that many orgs are seeing CoS as a title that is essentially a “manager of EAs”, but the role is so much more, and with the waters getting more muddied, it brings down the worth of a “chief of staff”, both in salary and expectations."
