Pros

Very good health benefits, nice work/life balance, remote working option, plenty of training opportunities, good bonus, technology is very good, there are some very talented people working at Paramount

Cons

The CBS culture has taken over and it's very toxic and cut-throat. If you are not from the CBS legacy side, your career will end sooner than you like and you will be viewed as an outcast. Salaries tend to be on the lower side. Some promotions clearly based on how well-connected you are, not whether it's been truly earned. Doesn't help your career if you are an older employee and you can't be your true self without repercussions.

Pros

My colleagues are some of the best, brightest, hardest-working people I know.

Cons

The company itself is very splintered and with recent rounds of layoffs and more to come (and a potential merger) belts are so tight that employees who are left are all working round the clock on impossibly tight budgets. Also, some managers are invincible, with far too much power. Top execs are blind to their flaws and don't recognize which staff are really doing the work, as these "leaders" are very good at managing up. Also somewhat of a misogynistic culture - success here lies in either being a man or acting like one.
