      Pros

      Working at ESPN has a lot of perks. You are part of thee preeminent sports company in the world and the opportunities to work in a number of career paths are broad. Depending on your job, you get to work with many celebrities and former athletes. You also get the benefits of being a Disney cast member (complementary entrance to theme parks and discounts on anything Disney).

      Cons

      Being a 24-hour, 7-day a week operation means that you will likely work nights and weekends. ESPN is the final destination for many in the sports field and because of that, I believe they are able to pay less in salary since interest working at ESPN is always in high demand.

      Pros

      I enjoyed the people I worked with. The compensation was good for a college student. I enjoyed watching sports and getting paid.

      Cons

      The hours working were not the best for a college student. Early mornings and late afternoons. It was hard to get a raise and or a promotion starting off.

      Pros

      You get to work with people as passionate about sports as you are, the benefits are great, and often there is opportunity to learn and develop skill sets. You meet athletes and gain experience working with various departments internally and externally. It's overall a positive work environment but that is heavily dependent on your immediate group.

      Cons

      It is difficult to get promoted, and often you must change departments in order to ascend unless you are in the right place at the right place. It is also very low pay from coordinator through manager level. I think they can get away with that since the demand to work at this company is so high.
