      Pros

      Company provides great diversity perks such as money to attend conferences and training. Housing is offered offered to international journalists working abroad. Lots of resources compared to smaller print and news companies so money is not a problem when on assignment.

      Cons

      Company is not likely to fire an incompetent boss, despite complaints from employees. Have to put the company first if you work in an international office. No work-life balance.

      Pros

      Company still has a good reputation

      Cons

      Lack of advancement. I have never seen a job description or a career plan. HR is obstuctionist. There is a serous lack of leadership. Middle managers are yes men and women. Nobody thinks for themselves. That is considered dangerous. There is no loyalty.

      CNN is a well-oiled news company with new drivers at the wheel

      Pros

      You will never work with better journalists than the ones who work here. Their attitudes, work ethics and results are simply mind blowing.

      Cons

      This company is focused on the realities of changing technology and new executives, less so their employees. It is a company in flux -- it used to be obvious how employees' work supported the goals of the company, but lack of direction and less transparency from management has been a part of recent changes.
