Pros

Employees hardly do any work on the weekends and public holidays (including checking emails)

Cons

- Top heavy organization where senior leaders chest beat and look after themselves first. - Woefully under-resourced across the markets with shrinking budget spend. - Discriminatory and biased management who are skilled at managing upwards. - Lack of ownership for work areas straddling various departments in a highly matrixed organization. No project management office unless it is a senior level project. - Other company reviews cited no opportunity for growth which is valid as the company is able to promote only junior ranks as the company is top heavy - Slow -moving company in the media industry with no appetite for risks or mistakes.

Pros

Lots of opportunities to learn anything within the company. They encourage employees to move around internally rather than to leave.

Unclear growth and promotion path

Pros

My manager didn't care about vacation time, if work wasn't stacking up. 4 free tickets to Universal Studios.

Cons

Crappy laptop to do development on. Have to have that same crappy laptop for 5 years, sadness. Irritating quarterly meetings, latest is they only want you to leave on the last day whereas before you could at least leave the next morning.
