Pros

Get to be involved with iconic brands and you will learn a lot about entertainment.

Cons

A very confused work environment with people who joined the company to work for the brand (MTV) it once was only to find an old school corporate environment. It leads to a very confused culture. Also, total lack of respect for others. Everyone is in CYA mode.

Pros

The brands are highly recognizable. This makes CBS Interactive (esp CNET) an attractive place as a stepping stone to a different company.

Cons

- No career advancement if you are at any point but just starting your career - Failure of senior leadership to grow middle managers - Poor employee recognition - Middle managers provide terrible leadership and are politically concerned to the point where they show little to no concern for direct reports (this is systemic, no group appears to be immune). - Product development is weak. There is no focus and senior management appears incapable of correcting this despite recognition of the problem.
