Very diverse, professional and great location. Set hours and opportunity for growth. Great hours and versatile schedules

There weren't many cons other than no having privacy as far as having an office. It was an open floor type seating. Not even cubicle

Pros

Fascinating environment, Media Insider Perks, Decent promotion rates, opportunity to learn LOTS from the broadcast world if you put the effort in, good networking available if you try.

Cons

Stil a bit of a "good ol boys" club, the higher you advance, especially in engineering. The company is a very large efficient machine, in the sense that they minimize their cost of staff. Low salaries, low raises, layoffs when they need to downsize or cancel a show. The hours can be brutal, if you're in a 24/7 department.
