Politics and who you know rules

Pros

Very casual environment, super talented and cool lower level people, decent pay.

Cons

Unless you are "in" with someone up in the company, don't expect to get anywhere. The execs let people under them (usually middle management) get away with everything. Even if you go to HR. Nothing happens. Working for one of the operating companies might be different (eg one of the channels).
