      Pros

      Universal Studios is a great place to work I suppose simply because it really is the entertainment capital of California. You have City Walk and plenty of restaurants to go to for your breaks or Lunch. U also get plenty of discounts. ...they wash your work clothes for you! which is quite nice. :D I'm sure they have other perks but i just didn't work that long to take advantage of all of them.

      Cons

      I got laid off after a month. Said I wasn't right for the job or something i did my best but I suppose my best wasn't good enough. They take you to this office and they have this dude who sounds mean basically tell you how incompetent you are. If ever you are fired from there you know how terrible this feels.

      Pros

      Great brands, good employee base, decent benefits, fun product, big enough to move into other areas of the company for advancement.

      Cons

      Very political environment so you need to know who you can trust and who to be wary of. If you can negotiate those details, and have tough skin to take direct criticism, then it's not all bad. Would not look at this as a long-term oppty. Probably less than 5 years and you'll burn out.
