Pros
The medical and dental benefits are great. The 401k company match is very generous.
Cons
No room for advancement. A great deal of politics and GAMES. Things are more about being corporate and less about being intuitive. There really IS NOT an open door policy. You are told that you can go into an executive's office and speak freely and openly and then shortly after you are chastised and ostracized for it. The staff is rarely ever informed about upcoming changes within the company or with the staff. They are NEVER forthright with you. Candor simply does not exist at this company. Sadly, regardless of how great your performance is or how much time you have invested with the company, it means absolutely nothing. The high achievers in the end are treated as poorly as the underachievers and your loyalty to the company is irrelevant. It was once a great place to work and has now become an oppressive environment that is no longer about selling great music. Now, it's a charade of corporate politics and childish games. The salaries that are offered for this company overall are miserly. If you worked in another industry, doing the EXACT same work, you would certainly be paid a great deal more than what Universal is willing to pay.
