Pros

Great if you're interested in media & publishing

Cons

IT group is too small, might be slightly disconnected from the rest of the company (although they were doing really well).

Pros

The benefits are some of the best around. It takes only a couple of years to get 3 weeks of vacation and 1 week of vacation time. Health insurance costs are reasonable. Strong team environments and many opportunities to learn from others. A very relaxed environment, and flexible hours.

Cons

As with most larger companies, work environments differ between groups. Although my group averages 40 hour weeks, there are some groups that are averaging around 60 hours a week.
