An international, publicly traded, 'Mom and Pop' shop.
Pros
Meeting interesting people and being a part of an iconic brand. Also, it was great seeing how WWE inspires people and makes them forget about their problems for a few hours a week.
Cons
Like the title says, this company contains the pressures of a global and publicly traded company with the informality of a small business (no approval or steering committee or any formalized process that I was exposed to). It actually feels like being back in high school. There is such an emphasis on 'looking good' and there is a general environment of insecurity and envy. 'We want to be like Disney'...'What does Netflix do?' . This has been, is and will be a recipe for disaster. This place also has a high turnover rate due to this unique a culture of fear and vanity. A lot of the people that have been there a long time have pronounced sycophantic qualities about them and talking the talking but can't walk the walk. You can't blame them as this is how one thrives in that environment. Unrealistic expectations. They want wall street hours on main street pay. Many people had never expected their jobs to be an almost 24/7 endeavor.
