Sales Assistant - Sales Assistant Discovery, Inc. Employee Review

Pros

All of the sales assistants are more or less right out of college and great people. Discovery works hard to hire good-quality people and it shows.

Cons

Recent grads looking to do something creative within the advertising world--this is not the job for you. You are merely coordinating slots in which commercials air in a very antiquated and confusing computer program--nothing else to the job. The job is unfulfilling and quite stressful if you are not a computer/math-minded person. Depending on your clients and networks on which you work, your hours can be unruly. But it's the luck of the draw. I found many sales assistants did not necessarily like what they were doing, but were merely "sticking it out" until they felt they had been at the company for a substantial amount of time, or something better came along.

Pros

Generous attendance policy, Generous PTO, company dedicated to diversity.

Cons

Pay is lower as company includes all benefits into compensation. HR is terrible, but that is always the case. Interview process is always dragged out and never transparent
