Pros

Bring your whole self to work Casual work environment Cool swag

Cons

Extremely political RIFs/downsizing every 6 - 10 months Constantly asked to "do more with less" No corporate name recognition - while everyone knows Viacom's brands, they don't know 'Viacom'

Pros

CNET culture of mature internet startup means decent quality of life--good health care, benefits, some perks.

Cons

Structure is often full of red tape and vetting new ideas can be difficult to impossible. Many of the best leaders left years ago and the company has seen replacements that just can't fill the shoes of the better leaders of years gone by.
