      Great Benefits, Low Pay, Hard to Move Up

      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very generous PTO, if you're lucky to be with a group that allows you to use it.

      Cons

      Low pay. Hard to move up in jobs. Plenty of people move up based on personality and yet they have no idea what they're doing. They call and ask asinine questions like are they supposed to a mic on a live guest in the field. The company obviously thought you were qualified enough to be a field producer. You tell me.

      Overall fulfilling

      International desk assignment editor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Working with some of the best in the business

      Cons

      Easy to get stuck in a place unless you continuously take own initiative to cross train, salaries not as competitive as some other networks and considering the HQ is in Atlanta, not much else to do in this city but work for Turner/CNN

      Pros

      Used to love working at Turner, the people are really what make the company great. The benefits package is also quite good, despite the below average compensation.

      Cons

      Ever since Jeff Zucker and John Martin came aboard, this company is collapsing. Morale is the lowest I've ever seen, and it's not just in my department. They are killing Atlanta one person at a time. I hope me and my coworkers can get out before they throw us out. If you are thinking about a career here, run now before it's too late.
