Pros

Good benefits Decent training opportunities Prestige in working for a big name Easier to move around in such a big company, so opportunities to do more

Cons

-There are way too many inefficient middle managers and no way to review them or hold them accountable. -It's a big company so some departments can be very toxic -Some people at CNN do really incredible work so it's really disheartening to see CNN hiring awful pundits and paying them the big bucks in lieu of hiring more really good journalists. -there are still race and gender biases in some of the hiring practices

Great group of people, culture is to empower employees to make decisions. Company makes 401k matches of 133% on first 3% of contribution and 100% of second 3%.

Cons

Several third party vendor systems leave a lot to be desired.
