Pros

Large, nation-wide company with plenty of room for advancement for those that want move to different parts of the country. Great for young, single or like-minded folks. Great for the politically conservative; you can really get behind the company's mission. A lot of really nice people, regardless of your political convictions, really. I am extremely liberal and I got along quite well with people at my location and with those from corporate headquarters. It's America, after all. Innovation: if there is money to be made in media, SBG is on top of it. They're quite successful. Did I mention they're huge?

Cons

If you are a thinking person and want to be able to feel good about what you're contributing to the world, don't work in television. If you're in a small market and your location isn't excelling in sales, expect to look for other opportunities. Obvious but just speaking from experience. A very insightful writer once said the following about the music business but I think it's even more true about television: "The [television] business is a cruel and shallow money trench, a long plastic hallway where thieves and pimps run free, and good men die like dogs. There's also a negative side.” -- Hunter S. Thompson The fact that I can laugh and cry simultaneously about that quote above.
