Pros

the salary was quite good

Cons

coming from another media company- I was disappointed in the lack of support there was for mentors in my area of work. I felt like I was sold the job during my interview process and my manager at the time needed someone to fill the position, so during my interview a lot of promises were made but never fulfilled.
