      Do not believe the hype

      Pros

      Overall good benefits, dental could be better, stock option plan and 401k contribution is very good.

      Cons

      Extremely top heavy! It's a internal joke about the number of VP's in each division, there can easily be 15 VP's in between a director and chairman, insane. The title is meaningless and must be given as part of a certain salary level. Digital is a mess, the people in charge are old broadcast/linear people that can't make fast decisions because they just don't know the business. Do not believe them when they say promotion from within is possible, I believed that lie and found out quickly there is no such thing as promotions.

      Negative Experience At Great Company

      Pros

      Opportunity to work on interesting projects (Sporting events like the Olympics and World Cup, movies, well known TV shows), company name looks great on resume, decent health insurance and other benefits.

      Cons

      I worked in the Miami/Hialeah office and it is overall a very toxic place to work and quite different than the NY or LA offices. In 2+ years of working there almost everyone I worked that I respected with was either laid off or pushed out. It is highly political and those who succeed are typically not the most talented or smartest employees but rather those who spend the most time weaving Game of Thrones-esque political webs. Also, salaries are low, given the amount of responsibility expected in mid-level roles.
