Down hill after merger

Analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-*was a fun place to work, cbsi felt like a small company within a big one -cool people -laid back attitudes -flexible managers

Cons

-all downhill after Viacom merger - Viacom; stale people, lacking decency, old brands that are irrelevant while they try to make them relevant -too much red tape to get anything done -leaders openly only prioritize certain BUs -Cbs sales: some of the worst in the business, incredibly toxic -pay seems a little low -not great PTO -very departmental, and the good departments have been gutted post merger and most good ppl have left -diversity initiatives are fake and forced

Paramount Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with us. We value the perspective of all of our employees and we would also encourage you to reach out to your HR team to share more of your concerns with them. The merger has allowed us to share even more fantastic content from all our brands with our global audience and they have responded very favorably. We would also like to assure you that our efforts in the areas of diversity and inclusion are sincere and we are excited to announce more initiatives in the coming year.
