Pros

Great place to get experience, looks good on resume

Cons

CNN is a good place to work if you don't inconvenience management by having a family and daring them to uphold their "family-friendly" policies. When I began job-sharing, I consistently received poor performance reviews, despite the quality of my work not changing. I eventually was let go because management couldn't make me quit. This was a much better, more innovative company under Ted Turner. Now it's just another big corporation that only cares about the stockholders.
