Pros

None besides the people I met/bonded with through this dysfunctional work environment

Cons

The management was terrible, told you were a number on an excel spreadsheet, employees are not valued, no organization or communication whatsoever.

Pros

People on the ground are great - you can make some good friends commiserating.

Cons

Senior management is abysmal, with no interest in anything other than the almighty dollar - no matter how many underpaid underlings they burn out and throw away. Pay is mediocre to poor for the industry/area and company relies almost entirely on permalancers for production. There used to be a company culture but not anymore. Sell sell sell. That’s all anyone cares about there. Benefits/insurance offerings are so-so and change every year. Bad managerial habit of completely ignoring massive structural issues and burning people out because they won’t properly staff. Not a good place to work anymore sadly.

More trouble here than you'd expect

Pros

Big name, makes compelling content, some really good people work here.

Cons

Poorly run from managerial perspective. They seem to be coasting off of success from FB video from years go, but haven't found the next thing. Politics are worse here than I've seen anywhere else. Layoffs happen monthly, but they intentionally avoid doing too many people at once to avoid negative press. That means people are continuously being let go.
