Poor management and lack of company direction.

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay, work/life, fun co-workers, easy work if you don't want to be challenged.

Cons

Management arbitrarily promotes, and provides no career advancement. In general, the top level is not a bunch of good thinkers but just people who have been around enough and suddenly find themselves at the top of the chain. When it comes to managing, building teams, making strategic decisions, there's really little ability there. And lower levels suffer as a result.

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible hours for the most part, minimal amount of work, lots of events and parties

Cons

Leadership has been in their same jobs for 10+ years, very limited business knowledge, only know the MTV way to do business, entitlement at VP level, lack of respect for employees below VP level, lots of yelling and blaming, lack of integrity, take credit for others work, speak down to employees, just an awful place to work if you have any business experience at all. If it's your first job, you can probably survive, but if you have any tenure of business experience, run.
