Pros

Great benefits, and atmosphere in the VIACOM office in NYC.

Cons

Internal battle within IT of Paramount and VIACOM on who is the "boss". VIACOM IT div. was looking to continue to expand in agile, devops, etc. Paramount was in ITIL mode. Paramount management was clueless on the difference and were looking to provide ITIL services to an agile (VIACOM IT) org... Go figure!

Pros

Beautiful, historical movie studio. The employees that have managed to stick around are super knowledgeable and friendly. Good employee benefits and community service program.

Cons

Very political environment. Bad higher management with poor hires that departments are stuck with. Less than competitive pay which causes talented workers to move elsewhere. Unstable environment with layoffs and lackluster films. Bad morale.
