Pros

1. Lots of potential to set up new processes and build on them. 2. No flat hierarchy but seniors are approachable 3. Some of the folks are really nice 4. Spend a couple of years (I worked at Sony Liv) and you will learn a lot.

Cons

1. Recruitment process is really shady. They send confirmation, revoke and change designations based on negotiations - you might interview and get selected for a higher band but if you don't negotiate well then they put you in a lower one and cite system issues. 2. Shady recruitment process part two - No one really sends the salary confirmation and breakdown in email. Apparently it's a policy there. They will only roll out the final offer till you give them an email confirmation. 3. Work - life balance is absolutely none. There's no concept of consent when sending late night meeting requests. You have to be assertive and decline it otherwise you're expected to be a part of it. 4. Too many meetings - Yes, you'll spend close to 5 hours every day (no kidding) answering calls and being in meetings as an observer. There is no concept of lunch breaks or no meeting days. 5. Really sub-par vendors/partners - The tech partners are really bad. You expect them to 'engineer' solution but as a PM you'll spend more time explaining to them what sort of a logic needs to be implemented. There are no initiatives, they just do whatever they are told to do. 6. Long term folks are really territorial with their team and the work they do. 7. Tech sorts product issues, product bites more than they can chew, everyone does everything. Guys unfamiliar with the OTT landscape and workflow are at the helm of things. 8. Gut > Data. For a lot of features, no one really uses data to back up their hypothesis. Approach is basically "since this worked in my last organisation, it will work here".

Pros

Salary on time they dont burn all cash

Cons

Ego is the key for all people here specially people joined from Star get attention in all meetings since CEO is from Star. CFO is from Pharma but think himself as veteran in Media Industry and insult business people in front of their team this is the reason senior people are leaving company.
