Pros

The friends you'll make in the program during the time you're there.

Cons

The uniforms, the management, the training, and having to compete with everyone just so you can work full-time. FYI-- they'll hire white people first before hiring any person of color. That's the trend you will see --no doubt.

Pros

Looks good on resume. Turn-overs are so high , so it was easy to get hired ( coming from another studio). I was a senior analyst at a different studio, but got hired as a senior manager. I was told other candidates turned down the offer because of lower pay rate. Senior manager's pay rate is about $90. Managers at other studios make more than that. I only took it because I was making $80k as a senior financial analyst.

Cons

20% lower pay scale than other major studios Horrible slate. The group I am in ( Home Entertainment) only issues bonuses to directors and above. Analysts, managers and senior managers don't get anything. Deals in place to give too much $ to producers and above the line where Paramount is set to lose money from the get-go. International business is a joke - no leadership, no clear directives on initiatives. No wonder Fox and Universal are taking over. Extremely hard to back-fill a position because Corporate Finance doesn't approve the headcount even though it is not a new opening , but rather to fill a position that someone LEFT.
