Pros

ESPN offers a great work life balance for its employees. Great sports atmosphere - if you are a sports fan, this is heaven. Fairly good benefits that are competitive in the workforce. Great perks from parent company / Walt Disney.

Cons

People can tend to be cliquey - ESPECIALLY managers. Pay is low compared to industry average (for my department anyway). ESPN perks relating to sporting events are rare. Tickets to a game? Think again.
