Pros

There are lots of smart, motivated people, and it's quite a fun place to work, with a great sense of comraderie.

Cons

Performance feedback can be spotty, and there is often a lot of secrecy. Inter-brand communication is TERRIBLE, and often rife with politics and competitiveness. There seems to be very little strategic coordination between the three main units -- Kids (Nick), Entertainment (Comedy/Spike), and Music (MTV/VH1).
