Pros

I liked the location and the building is really nice. I also liked the snack room with $.25 drinks and a snack machine with food. I found coworkers to be responsive and care about doing a good job.

Cons

Lack of communication around changes going on because of the CBS Corp acquisition. I am not sure management really has a clear direction around priorities.

Pros

At least it is new media, and you will work your butt off. They are willing to try almost anything to make a buck.

Cons

That said they wont but up the resources to make many good ideas really work, senior management terrified of Redstone, and the only real concern is what to do about the stock price. Compensation is terrible, benefits not too good either.

Pros

As with CNET Networks, which makes up the bulk of the crew here (at least in SF), high points include a large group of friendly, intelligent people, and a climate that is casual yet energized. It's definitely a place you can make friends AND learn quite a bit.

Cons

Advancing in your field isn't always easy here--the move up the chain is slow, and upper management is difficult to break into if you don't have an MBA and/or a marketing background.
