Great benefits, slightly disconnected

Sales associate

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Love the people I work with, the content is incredible & the skills I'm learning is unparalleled. Competitive pay & opportunities to climb the corporate ladder.

Cons

The Sales Associate position is slightly disconnected from the company. In an entry-level position, you are learning all the ins and outs of media operations & sales. But unfortunately, we are just kind of left out of a lot of conversations in terms of selling, client communication, and what the next step looks like for us.

Business Outlook

Pros

WLB is great Most people are a pleasure to work with Great benefits

Cons

Can get into a comfort zone here Since it's such a large company with so many engineers and teams, you can find yourself specializing in one small specific thing, this can be a pro if you like it this way though. TC is a little low for software engineers

Paramount Response

Thank you very much for the candid feedback. Our leaders value the thoughts of our employees and former employees. As always, they review feedback from pulse and engagement surveys, and from Glassdoor. Thanks again.
