Pros

If you like sports, ESPN is a great place to work (obviously). The work itself is very interesting. There was a TV at every desk and employees could watch sports games and sportscenter all day. The campus is very nice, the facilities are great, and there is a terrific gym on the premises.

Cons

The downside was that it was in a very quiet, remote part of Connecticut. Most people live in West Hartford, which is a great little city, but it's two hours from New York and two hours from Boston. As someone just out of college I would have preferred a more active area.
