Job environment is very competitive as almost everyone starting out has a connection in some way to the industry. Promotions are hard to come by.

Very nice benefits. There is a gym on the lot and you get to see movies before the come out!

Pros

Media company is a plus - exciting "products" that you can be proud of seeing in the real world. Overall work-life balance is better than other companies.

Cons

Specifically in the organization that I left - there is immense turn over. It's actually pretty crazy, about 70%. Large part is poor leadership of the organization that is too focused on cost reductions and not bringing value to the internal customers.
