      Too much Bureaucracy

      Pros

      There are no pros at CNN

      Cons

      There are so many layers of Management nothing ever gets done properly, and the chances of promotion are slim. When I was hired at CNN it took 2 weeks to get an email address and 2.5 months before I got my first paycheck. HR and payroll didn't seem to be phased by it and didn't care that I couldn't pay my rent. The company truly does not care about an employees life outside of work.

      Very difficult to move departments

      Pros

      Nice location. Nice building. State of the art equipment.

      Cons

      Had a very hard time moving to a different department. Had to work 2 jobs at the company for over a year before finally being able to make the transition. HR and hiring managers don't take chances on internal employees.
