Pros

There are so many wonderful, high-skilled, highly-trained people working all across the company, especially in IT. They are always willing to help talking through technical issues and challenges to solve problems. There are so many mentors ready to set aside some time to teach you new things and help you master them. All I have ever had to do was take the initiative to reach out and ask. Paramount provided amazing benefits and career advancement opportunities, both upward and laterally. When they have to make staff reductions, it is not personal, it is purely business. They provide generous severance packages and career services to help aid in the transition to new opportunities.

Cons

Paramount is a Cable and Television media company whose income is based primarily on ad revenues. When revenues drop, they do as many large corporations and have make cutbacks.

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
