Pros

Casual atmosphere. Most employees are nice.

Cons

Lack of Management Leadership and Vision. Lots of long hours, with little to no acknowledgement from management, and no compensation. Music was a 'hot' place to ba back in the day, but the market has changed, and UMG is still trying to bring back the good old days.
