MTV Networks - it's not all it's cracked up to be

Producer

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

It's overall a fun place to work. You get to watch TV as a part of your job, which is pretty cool as compared to many others. Also when networking, the name MTV Networks garners much interest.

Cons

Promotions are based more on personal relationships and less on hard work. They don't pay enough money for the work that's put in. The employees that work the hardest don't seem to reap any of the benefits that one would think would come with working at a place like MTV (tickets to shows, networking opportunities).

A deeply skeptical overview that has some seeds of hope.

Business Outlook

Pros

For those with an entrepreneurial mindset, one can basically assemble and build their own vision. Also, the brand still has strong cache worldwide.

Cons

Everyone has their own vision and is competing for the same resources and tools, with little guidance from senior management. At this point in time, senior management doesn't understand the new complexities of the market place. So great ideas tend to die, and those execs who survive tend to be more politically savvy than talented businesspeople.

Good company to work for but...

Business Outlook

Pros

The company is really young and they are very open to new ideas.

Cons

There's not a lot of room for advancement, you really have to leave the company and then come back in order to move up the ranks which is somewhat frustrating. If you're young, you're not going to get a staff position and you end up being stuck as a permalancer and that sucks because just because you're young it doesn't mean that you don't want health insurance and a retirement plan. Sometimes things are pretty disorganized as well and that's a bit frustrating too
