Pros

Very professional environment. Innovative in digital and invests in content. Family oriented. Very good health insurance / benefits and excellent 401K options.

Cons

Not much growth opportunity for careers - people tend to stay in the same position for a very long time. Work force lacks diversity. The financial compensation while not the lowest in the industry could be better.

Pros

The company has a great name. There are loads of employee development programs, meetings, and groups to become a part of. Lots of fun events that are good for morale. Networking opportunity is there, you get out what you put in to it. A great place to start out because the experience you get is really valuable and can translate well in interviews. benefits are good. mid level management is overall impressive and understands the need for work/life balance.

Cons

Upper management does not know what they are doing for the most part. The company is so big it can pretty much survive with subpar management. You cannot negotiate your salary, you take what your offered. Difficult to move upward unless you are willing to relocate.
