Pros

-Beautiful lot, lots of actors and stars about, cool history -Lots of free screenings of non-Paramount content & Paramount movies -Cheap benefits package -Employee Resource Groups and their activities -Org is lean and flat so you can move up quickly if you play the game

Cons

-Change and Innovation hampered by politics and fear of exec management/Viacom -Sr. Management is more concerned with CYA than actually making anything better -Low Employee Morale -Low Job Security (yearly lay-offs) -Low Pay (20-50K lower than peers at other majors) -3% annual raise is the maximum (and no one gets the rating to get this rate) -Poor performers don't get fired or put on performance plans, they get shuffled around until there's layoffs -Good people don't stay, bad employees stay forever
