Pros

Good first job out of college. Once you can juggle schedule changes, flighting, requests from clients, requests from your AE, prelogs/postlogs, putting in last minute plans into Gabriel using Panda for avails (all lingo you'd understand once hired), you really learn how to multitask and prioritize which is a great skill for any future job.

Cons

The politics at this company and "fake" rules they have created to prevent "premature" promotions at this place are ridiculous. If you are good at your job and have a complete grasp on your position and what you do, you should definitely be promoted, assuming that you're the best at it and have a successful "pitch." It's a great name to have on your resume, but it's just that. They need to look at some of their AE and re-evaluate their value to the company. Pay? Forget about it, half of what they COULD be paying you goes towards silly A&E promotions like keychains and miniature dustpans. A higher up used to say that we were "pretty much volunteers."

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.
