Pros

Various cable networks under one roof. Also close knit is groups of departments makes it nice however only if you fit in. Even if you do fit in, much of that comraderie is filled with dismay of the company or other employees in the organization.

Cons

The diligent efforts of very capable employees get zero recognition. Promotions are handed out to people within in we circles. Many times these promoted individuals lack the competency for the job. A+E used to be a place where you'd stay for your entire career, but they do not value their hard working employees. If you are looking to find a quality position and or career in the entertainment industry, don't work here.

Cons

High level executives are only seen when at the town hall meeting. Depts are separated. The company doesn't promote communication between diff groups Bonuses aren't that high if you are not mid level Work events could be better Could have more educational workshops in case you wanted to move to another dept or freshen up your skills.
