Pros
I get the opportunity to use writing and analytical skills together. It's a laid-back atmosphere that values teamwork and I've never been berated, yelled at, or mistreated. Management encourages career growth and initiative, although taking initiative can sometimes be intimidating. For staff, the benefits are good and feel well-thought out. When the company holiday extravaganza was cancelled, staff got two extra vacation days to use during the holidays, which was thoughtful.
Kontras
It's a big corporation that can sometimes feel faceless. There's a large difference in treatment between long-term freelance and staff positions, in terms of benefits and a general feeling of fairness (if someone's been there eight years, they aren't really freelance). Because turnover in the industry is so high, it can feel as though the only way to advance is to switch networks, which is too bad-- I like it at MTVN.
