Pros

Work/Life balance - They are very proactive with spending time outside of the office. During the summer season we get every other Friday off and there is always an event where you can bring children. Benefit - The benefits are pretty good and rarely do you hear about premiums increasing or getting less than prior years. Dress code - Unless you're in finance or sales, you can wear jeans and dress down most of the time.

Cons

There are opportunities, but unfortunately most of them go to friends of friends or relatives. The company should support more of its own employees.

Pros

Summer Fridays Mentor program for career growth Depending on your team, nice perks Jeans environment, depending on your team Workshops available for a variety of topics Good place to get experience than move on to another company- some people leave MTV to get a better paying job after a few years because the company name can open doors for you

Cons

Poor pay compared to competitors Depending on your department, little to no room for growth. You may have to network with a few senior level managers to get a promotion or recommendation Constant change- not always for good when it is not communicated clearly and truthfully Depending on your department getting things done can be a lot of red tape.
