Pros

Good work/life balance for the most part. Excitement at company due to excellent new programs and network growth.

Cons

When I was there, there was unwritten pressure to stay late. Felt guilty if I left at 5:00pm or 5:30. Some folks seemed to be promoted because they had friends in high places. Right now the construction necessitates two buildings--annoying to go back and forth for meetings.

A&E stands for Arts & Entertainment but nothing artistic or entertaining about their current programming.
