Pros

Beautiful, high-tech campus in a suburban rural environment, two hours from both NYC and Boston. Stellar perks under Disney umbrella including health and 401k, on-site free wellness center, great cafeteria (not subsidized), on-site daycare, access to lots of development and life programs, main entrance gate pass to Disney parks worldwide. Competitive and creative environment with lots to learn. Be part of the world's most successful sports media company.

Cons

Hard-driving 24/7 environment not for the faint of heart. With few exceptions for certain corporate departments, people here are expected to be tied to the office at all hours. Location is a turn-off for younger employees though a great place to settle down with a family. Recent reorgs and pressure from Disney to make numbers have made it even more challenging, vibe is less positive than before. Environment can be challenging for women and minorities though company is working hard to combat and address the "old boys' club" reputation.
