A fine first stop or place in transit, but not a long term career destination. - Program Manager RealNetworks Employee Review

Pros

Experience; personal challenge; slow pace for someone that enjoys that environment; opportunities to work in digital media. I view Real as a great first job to try to decide what you like in this type of industry.

Cons

Very little long-term professional growth; highly underpay at all levels; no control or input on company or group direction at the lower levels. Real is a place to work if you really like slow environments and aren't motivated and/or personally challenged to continually grow. Most people who are long-timers at Real are more content with having a job vs. growing a career. This is fine for a certain type of personality, but it's not a good environment for people who do love to be challenged and continually learn and grow.
