CNN reviews

Always new technologies happening, although implementation is often not very well planned. The new people tend to be "groomed for promotion". Good benefits.

I've worked in major market post production for 20+ years, and in 2015 was lured into relocating to Atlanta at my own expense for a job as a CNN "Editor/Producer." Biggest mistake of my life! (No exaggeration.) When Time-Warner slashed the budget in 2014, many of the senior managers were axed and replaced with newbies, who didn't have a clue about the day-to-day operations of the departments. The result has, in many cases, been a shamefully disorganized approach to hiring new people. After I started the job, I was forced into a role that had little to do with editing, and LESS to do with producing. My discussions with management about this were a complete waste of time, as they were totally inflexible. As a result, the talents for which I believed I was being hired went completely un-utilized and I was miserable. I left after a 8 months and never looked back. My disgust over this episode is only exceeded by my relief at being out of CNN. Beware of this organization. They used to have their act together.
