Pros

Pretty good place to work overall, nice benefits, nice people. And being the largest music company gives a sense of security

Cons

Foreboding sense of being on a slooowly sinking ship. Management appears to have no idea what it's doing or have a long term plan. Company in desperate need of a COO as there is a leadership vacuum at the top.

Pros

Enjoyed learning about new artists/music. Worked with some great, talented colleagues. Benefits were top notch.

Cons

This is a fear-based culture through and through. Most are in a constant state of fight or flight. I’d never experienced such a volatile environment which was largely driven from the top. Huge pay disparity between upper management and rest of staff.
