Vantaggi
You can wear jeans to work (which may be great in your 20s, but less so in your 30s and 40s), The creative vibe is contagious, and the company is constantly changing. Senior management encourages creativity which is always nice.
Svantaggi
Senior management are mostly children - not in age, but in attitudes and professionalism. EVPs and SVPs still dress like they're 18 and treat employees as if they're 15. Promotions from within are frequently overlooked in favor of hiring from the outside, creating a culture of disgruntled long timers. Judy McGrath hasn't addressed the staff personally in close to two years. Senior management at each of the networks and network groups only address their staffs marginally more often. Layoffs are imminent and some senior staff is non-existent around the office. Occasionally, diversity is valued more than talent, leaving those who don't fit a profile left in the dust. There's an undeserved sense that because it's such a creative environment that smart business tactics aren't required.
