Flexibility with no room for advancement

Pros

Many of the departments offer flexible work hours for employees. Some even work from home. There are perks to being in the music industry such as sometimes getting tickets to events. The HR department does a good job of providing a well done employee appreciation day each year. In some departments, the salaries are in line with private industry salaries.

Cons

There are very limited opportunities for advancement. Promotions may be given out, but they do not result in much of an advancement. There is a clear preference of male employees to female employees in some departments. There is also a clear wall between upper management and everyone else. This results in an inability to be heard.

Pros

- Work from a satellite office therefore got to travel to Nashville for training. - Good salary for entry level. - Very well known company in the music industry. - On the writers and publisher side got to know a lot of industry contacts. - Aim for positions that dont have to do with sales, but with the composers and writers. Is the funnest. - Great company activities if you get to go.

Cons

- On the sales side... "selling music" is really hard. Telling small businesses they need to buy a license to play the music they've been playing for years is a real challenge. - Account Executive is more like a sales position and in general licensing is like doing telemarketing.

Pros

The people there are friendly and have a good group mentallity

Cons

Most of the positions there have little to do with the "Record industry". Everyone wants to be involved with Artist relations, but few get there. I saw a lot of money wasted on purchases that really should have gone to the artists it was collected in the name of.
