Worst Company I've Ever Worked For
Pros
Baseball is always on, but that doesn't mean you get to watch it. Don't come to this company thinking all they do is baseball. It's basically a partnered media streaming company at this point.
Cons
Where to start? The management is an absolute joke. Lots of partners coming in (Sony, Fox Sports, Twitter, etc). But most of them are spearheaded in NY. Which leaves your "real" bosses halfway across the country. Very little training offered, and you have to learn EVERYTHING on your own and on the fly. The salaries are laughable given the cost of living in SF. In fact, they're insulting. The benefits FOR FULL TIMERS ONLY are very good (full medical, dental, and vision), but the salary is god awful. EXTREMELY political work environment behind closed doors, even though management is very good about making it not seem that way on the floor. You will be left alone most of the time by supervisors and managers, but that doesn't mean they aren't monitoring your every move. Most times, promotions are based on whether or not the manager likes your personality. Believe me, I saw the most under qualified people get promoted over very deserving candidates. Big decisions are made by managers in NY who you never, ever interact with, or when you do, it's for a half hour every 3 months. This is the worst run company I've ever worked for. And that's my honest opinion, I wish it weren't true. Do not let the name and the fact that it's MLB fool you. Unless you're an engineer or IT person, stay away. Don't get caught up in thinking it's a baseball job, and get stuck mindlessly monitoring Sony Vue shows for $18 an hour in SF!
