Pros

Analyzing sports. People who care about what they do and how they do it. The Disney perks are worthwhile...but...

Cons

Upper management (Directors and above) run the place like Geeks Gone Wild as they never have actually played the games. Too full of themselves and lack of care for the actual soldiers in the trenches. To into their roles and take themselves way too seriously, particularly in production. Office politics are horrendous, that is if there aren't any shenanigans going on behind the closed doors. Former newspaper people running the TV side. Since they drove newspapers into the ground, Disney thought it would be special if they could ruin TV, too. Expect your personal life to suffer with working every weekend, holiday, nights, long shifts, short turns into the next day; zero consistency in the scheduling.
