Pros

The environment was pretty layed back but very competitive. Absolutely no dress code and people seemed to be very nice and approachable.

Cons

Though people seemed nice and approachable, I realized that the other employees were very fake and not understanding. Smile in your face and talk about you behind your back but that's almost at any company.

Pros

A first choice place to work. Employee contributions to the overall good of the company are valued and appreciated by senior management

Cons

Business has over taken what used to be a "creative environment" first mentality

For a corporate job, you could do a lot worse...

Pros

Large enough to offer a variety of opportunities (if you know people and can take advantage of them), as well as a really good benefits package - I don't think I know anyone else my age with a pension. As others have mentioned, it's a fairly lax environment with a "fun" corporate culture.

Cons

Promotions seem arbitrary and many departments never seem to promote anyone. Yet we are always receiving email notices about promotions in the more "glamorous" departments - production, development, ad sales, marketing, PR.
