Pros

Chic new office space, with good accommodation, centrally located, media business (if that's your thing). You feel like, as it's stuff some (sad) people watch every night on TV that what you're doing MIGHT be worthwhile, but you soon realise that the money the business is willing to put into new programming is insufficient to make it competitive and so all you show is re-runs.

Cons

weak management, shockingly bad HR, the strategy (at least when I was there) was to sell the channels to ANYONE in a number of territories and the truth is it never was an economic model.

Pros

Great perks and benefits! Free theme park tickets, cable, peacock subscription. Good place for interns

Cons

Entry level pay is very poor and not sustainable. Lot of politics when it comes to promotions and it is based more on relationship with management rather than actual performance. Upper management just takes all your work and presents as their own. Fake it till you make is at every level of this organization. Hired people as remote and now is laying everyone off.
