      A "Management First" Company - Anonymous employee A+E Networks Employee Review

      Pros

      The employees are fantastic, benefits are great, and the pay is good.

      Cons

      A+E is a "management first" company and doesn't value creative people or their contributions to the organization. It bleeds creatives because management is antiquated, redundant, and punitive. By the time anything gets accomplished, the industry has already done it and moved on, leaving A+E in a constant state of catch up. Managers manage managers who manage managers and they all have a rudimentary understanding of the work they manage. Work must be reported in a variety of ways yet they still don't understand what's going on.

      Pros

      I worked on the Content Creation team which is primarily made up of contract employees. Work is remote, but plenty of opportunities to get together in office and meet other people and socialize afterwards. Everyone on the team is great to work with, there are efficient systems in place and it is a well-oiled machine! I've done two contract rounds with them and am looking forward to my next one.

      Cons

      No opportunities to convert from contract to staff. There are a lot of things that aren't available to contract employees that are only available to staff (certain meetings, resources, etc). Contract employees are limited to 18 months, and then are required to take a year off.

      Pros

      Some very nice people; had good benefits although those are being cut back because of financial uncertainty

      Cons

      Fading industry, frequent layoff cycles with hints of more to come, the company is trying to innovate but some divisions are slow to modernize other than throwing around silly talking points at meetings.
