Is Joan from Mad Men awful overall?

I'm almost through the final season of a Mad Men rewatch and my opinion of Joan is generally that she's a piece of shite. Am I forgetting some large redeeming moments, or does her behavior overall put her on the shittier side of the line?

She's kind of the female Roger. Generally good person at heart, but definitely selfish and that causes her to run over people at times.

She definitely likes to play head games with people and constantly assert her dominance. She can be helpful to younger newer types but even that seems to have an ulterior purpose of making them need her and something she will throw in their face if needed.

You can watch mad men and come away feeling this way about any character in the series imo. Likely comes down to your scale of liking the character on how much you’re willing to take of them being a bad person because they all do shitty things like Joan, some much shittier behavior and we still root for those characters because they’re fun
In short, everyone in the series is awful overall
(still all great and fun characters of course )

Peggy was awful. Joan had two amazing qualities

Everyone on Mad Men is awful overall…except Sally.

She had some unnecessary catty moments early on but she got better.
And she was a knockout.

She wasn’t awful at all, quite the opposite. In that world she was hopelessly overmatched on the business end but she was a grinder who hung around long enough to develop wisdom within the office politics and elevated herself.
