    Discovery Communications Anonymous:   (Current Employee)

    Pros

    Although the base pay at Discovery is less that at other similar companies, the work-life balance as well as the benefits and flexibility are worlds over other employers!

    Cons

    The base pay is lower that is expected at jobs similar at other companies. Seem to sometimes be behind the times in certain technologies (laptops and definitely their e-mail system!).

    Advice to Senior Management

    Raise the salaries to be more in line with similar offerings elsewhere.
