      Pros

      nice employees that may or may not last after you move onto another position. Young employees because that is the industry. Felt like a start up.

      Cons

      horrible business structure and awful management. Sort of a high school like environment with a lot of cliques. Sink or swim type of experience.

      Pros

      Free fully stocked kitchen with salads, cold case of beverages, coffee machines that grind the beans per order, chest of tea bags, chips, cookies, candy, trail mix, jerky, fruit, bagel Fridays, espresso, catered lunches for meetings, etc. If you ever get a chance to visit the Myspace office, they have their own in-house cafe where food is prepared to-order (something like $15 credit per day to spend on any food/drinks/snacks there). The amenities are pretty sweet. Benefits were also covered 100%.

      Cons

      When asked what you love about your job, most would answer that it's the people. Usually, that's the case for me. Well, this simply wasn't true at Specific media. I'm positive that this varies greatly by department, but the one I joined was filled with a bunch of employees who exuded the awful attitude of "it's everyone for themselves." The department was unfortunately run by a narcissist, and that person's penchant for office politics and power trips noticeably influenced the behaviors of the department's employees (and definitely not in a good way). Working there felt like I was beating my dignity to death with a shovel. No amount of free food was worth that.
