Pros

Great brands and talent still there, nice work environment and perks

Cons

Lots of the great talent has left. Began to feel more like a corporation without the start-up energy. Layoffs, cost cutting and fleeing of skilled mgmt had an impact on morale

Pros

- Being able to say you work at MTV - Flexible work hours and super light work load frees up a lot of time to work on your own side projects. - Obnoxious corporate spending meant attending expensive conferences was no problem.

Cons

- Its bureaucratic structure bred a culture of terrible work ethic at every level. No one produces any actual work other than meeting agendas and 'To Do' lists. - Uninspiring projects and uninspiring leaders. - "Permalancing" - terrible pay, unpaid holidays, no benefits, tax violations.
