Pros
Matched 401k and benefits are good. This experience taught me exactly what I do NOT want to do or be apart of from a career perspective.
Cons
The overall experience at this position was extremely negative. Team members did not work well with each other. Felt almost like a "high school" type of atmosphere; very catty. This particular department lacked good moral values and culture. There also lacked good/positive communication between the Assistants, Planners and Management staff. I would not go back to work in the Communications department at Discovery ever again. You must have tough skin to work in this type of environment in order to do well - it is very much a "sink or swim", which was a direct quote from one of the Managers. Upper level management is extremely misogynist and highly inappropriate with the younger employees, especially with the women. I found there to be a level of disrespect and harassment by management and other employees which made it difficult to work around.
