Great benefits but Selfish Upper Management

Financial planning & analysis manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The greatest benefit is the amount of time off we get. Good job security (at least in some divisions)

Cons

no flex hours; no working from home; upper management is selfish and making bad long term strategic decisions; limited promotions; TERRIBLE morale company-wide

Good PTO, But Less than Stellar Work-Life Balance

Finance manager

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

The 401(k) matching is great. Warner Bros matches, dollar for dollar (100%), up to 7% of your 6% contribution. PTO is also good. First year of hire is 2 weeks of vacation, and that goes to 3 weeks starting your second year. There are also 3 floating holidays, and depending on the department, 3 full summer days off (or 6 half days in the summer), and potentially a paid company shut down between Christmas and New Year's Day. At WB, you also get 100% of your pay for six weeks for maternity/paternity leave, which is not bad, considering that most companies don't pay a dime for this leave. Great people to work for/with (at least in my experience), but that is dependent on your department.

Cons

If you're in finance or accounting, work-life balance at WB is not be all that great. During monthly and quarterly close periods, and also quarterly forecast periods, you can be doing an average of 60 hours per week (some weeks more). Their IT systems are antiquated and not up to industry standards, which also contribute to the increased hours. As far as salary goes, it's below industry average (i.e., at least when compared to NBC and Disney).

Mixed Bag Depending on Your Role

Pros

Excellent pay and benefits. Television actors abound and you will certainly see them. A fully equipped gym is on the lot as well as a cafeteria, restaurant, and coffee shop.

Cons

My experience is within IT and the cons are with regard to IT. Completely dysfunctional; largely due to an executive management team that is one generation (or two) past current technology. Unless you are a VP or higher expect to work long hours with little hope of anyone ever recognizing and rewarding your efforts.
