Cons
- Navigating complexity can be time-consuming: Being part of a large corporation, decision-making and alignment across business units can slow progress or dilute user-centered priorities.

- Limited visibility for internal UX contributions: Impactful work may remain behind internal walls due to confidentiality or limited external recognition.
