Pros

Benefits are excellent, if you can score a staff position (Viacom relies heavily on perma-lancers).

Cons

The atmosphere is murky and cruel. Upper management seems to run on a fuel composed of equal parts fear and snark, and decisions are more like whims than solid road maps and can change without warning or reasoning. There are some good people, but the good people seldom progress to levels of power.
