Pros

-Great support network -Smart dedicated and collaborative colleagues -The company really works hard at being innovative

Cons

-When I was there compensation was pretty low -There are some horrible managers. Thankfully I never had to work much with them but some of them are pretty legendary. Not sure if senior management thinks they're ok as long as they're meeting some numbers even though their people skills are pretty much non-existent.

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.
