Pros

Headquarters has start up feel and fun events. Owned by AOL. Used to have some great talent before restructuring

Cons

Everything else. Micro-management to a whole new level, by middle managers, as well as executives. On your interview, they act like you will have freedom to "run own business" this couldn't be farther off, every task you do is directly managed, tracked, and then you have a conference call to review all and make sure you follow to a tee. Lost sight that they recruit professionals, I've had internships that I've had more freedom to excersise insights and provide knowledge base. Outside Middle managers let emotions run actions Goals unrealistic, and do not come through on bonuses promised. Job expectations change quarterly
