Great place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits package and perks (of course, even better perks when we're not in the middle of a recession). They encourage you to learn as much as possible while you're there, and often recognize a job well done.

Cons

A lot of positions are overtime exempt....and those people usually work more than 40 hours a week. Bring back overtime!!

Pros

Access to compelling projects at The History Channel, great people at the lower level of production, great area to work.

Cons

The A&E Channel itself is run by essentially a high school girl's clique. Nasty and brutish...lurching from demo to demo without a clear idea of how to succeed

Business Outlook

Pros

- Company had great culture, people WERE kind and being 50% owned by Disney was billed as a fabulous thing! - Very decent benefits

Cons

- Horrid HR from LA with no soul and no heart - Obvious Favouritism - some departments head seem to have more sway than others - Directionless - it's survival by the day vs long term - You will never get promoted, unless you are favoured by management or you massively suck up to management - Bullies their way through layoff (Suddenly what Disney does is irrelevant because they're a separate entity) Very double standards.
