Pros

Great experience as a college senior looking to enter the sports industry. Helpful staff who were inviting and dedicated to helping me succeed.

Cons

It was an unpaid internship. Although I could have gone to another company and gotten paid, I felt as though having ESPN on my resume was priceless.

Pros

ESPN is a well-known brand around the world, and that's reflected in the corporate culture. Management expects great things from you, as you're representing a huge brand. Compensation is great.

Cons

Due to the nature of the job, long hours are an inevitability for many employees. Media is that kind of animal. As I said, though, compensation is good.

Pros

The overall environment at ESPN is very casual, very friendly and most of all respectfull. Great place to work for college graduates looking to get a head in the television industry. Also great benefits as well as VERY GOOD PERKS.

Cons

This is a 24 hour environment so be prepared to work the over night shift if you are a new hire.
