Pros

Ever changing (can't get bored here) Colleagues are great Relaxed atmosphere within some of the business units Great location (SF)

Cons

Ever changing (can't establish long-term goals/prioritize projects) Too many cooks in the kitchen Since CBS bought CNET, it's not as relaxed/there's a definite culture war Also, since CBS bought CNET, the HR department has been AWFUL - constantly screwing up vacation times, benefits, etc. no one takes responsibility when employee data is messed up and needs to be fixed Company intranet is an absolute mess - no clear employee directories, no updated information (worse yet, inaccurate/outdated information is still up there) Since the merger, CNET employees still can't see CBS employees' calendars in Outlook (impossible to schedule meetings)

Pros

Love the cafeteria, interesting people, interesting projects, fun atmosphere

Cons

Was told I could get hands-on experience in the internship I never received, really bad desk set-up for an intern, never worked with or spoke to the person who was supposed to be my supervisor.
