Pros

CBS is a casual work environment and the Interactive division has retained some of its .com roots. The engineering teams do have some very bright and motivated individuals.

Cons

The parent CBS company is clueless as to how to run an Internet company. Every project is pathetically under resourced. The sites are falling behind the progression of the Internet and are so heavily loaded with ads the user experience awful.
