Has MTVN lost it's Soul or just the faith of it's employees?

Project manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The Benefits package is good and the general staff are a great bunch to work with

Cons

The organization is turning more and more "corporate". I think this company is slowly losing it's soul. This used to be a creative place focused on making the most inovative and interesting entertainment in the world. Now it's just trying to meet the bottom line. Noone cares any longer how we get there only that the stockholders are happy. When I was young (I was tuned in when Video Killed the Radio Star appeared) MTV was the voice of a generation. Considering the programming it's transmitting, what is that voice saying now?
