Pros

- GREAT for Resume -- Pinnacle Of The Sports Media Industry - A LOT of exposure to great talent and major advertisers/brand - Ideal for Sports Fanatic - Perks as a Disney Employee are GREAT

Cons

- Often too much focus on the bottom dollar & NOT what's necessary to achieve revenue goals (i.e. Better work processes, better technology, etc...) - Career advancement is VERY tricky to navigate across teams & groups - Salary/Pay is questionable pending your position, experience level and who you know within the company - Senior Management often makes decisions that aren't carefully thought through - Some tools utilized for day-to-day job responsibilities are VERY outdated and need upgrading
