Pros

Nice people Average benefits Older brand name in media and entertainment research

Cons

The company is very fragmented and convoluted Communication is horrible at the divisional level The company talks a lot about diversity but not much action, it's probably just for PR purposes No management training or real leadership and as a result a lot of management has no real training in management or leadership skills No real HR - no centralized or organized support All IT is outsourced to India, no tech support on site at locations
