Pros

Working for a global brand. Fast-paced Environment. Cool projects.

Cons

Lack of interest in management for developing talent. Hostile environment if you are not a part of the "circle". Lack of appreciation for diversity across the board. Lack of respect for work-life balance outside of mothers. HR department does not work in favor of the employee.

Pros

Very generous PTO, if you're lucky to be with a group that allows you to use it.

Cons

Low pay. Hard to move up in jobs. Plenty of people move up based on personality and yet they have no idea what they're doing. They call and ask asinine questions like are they supposed to a mic on a live guest in the field. The company obviously thought you were qualified enough to be a field producer. You tell me.
