Pros

Good pto, wfh, and flexible schedule benefits, that attract and maintain top talent. Good coworkers that are willing to help. Management from the ceo to my department manager are rational, seemingly caring, and open to change; ideal for success in the digital entertainment landscape. The company has already taken strides for a better workplace, and continues to do so.

Cons

The pay could be more competitive compared to other companies in the field. Many of the systems and processes are inefficient and antiquated causing gears of friction and ineptitude in certain areas. Sometimes, employees have to suffer as a result of these systems. That said, it seems management has the right attitude for change, and there are plenty of opportunities for you to introduce improvements as an employee. The future looks bright.

Pros

- Benefits - At the Digital Specialist, Account Manager, and Account Executive level the people are mostly incredible to work with internally - Most AEs are able to have their own offices, which helps significantly to drown out the noise of senior management

Cons

- CEO / Culture post Skydance merger: I never thought I would ever be in a position where I would want to leave a company because of the people. But that is starting to become the case. ELT/SLT does not care about the culture, hard workers, or rewarding loyalty. They will treat you like a number because the only thing anyone cares about (and its so apparent more than ever) is the bottom line. - Compensation and values - working for Viacom and CBS / ViacomCBS / Paramount before Skydance actually felt like it meant something. Now, no one knows if we're even valued and more often than not we're made to feel like every day of our lives here we have to prove our value over and over again. You never genuinely feel safe or comfortable here because there's going to be layoffs every 6 months. Other tech companies will give better compensation - Paramount needs to up their game if they don't want to continue losing their best talent. - You're literally just a number here. The company does not reward hard work or loyalty so it's best to just watch your own back because no one will have it here. They have let go of the best leaders that I've ever come across and have kept toxic egos only because they know how to play the toxic game that working here has become
