Pros
The benefits were generous, and the people who i worked with kept me there as long as I was.
Cons
Mismanagement from the top down. It's time for the founder, Charles Dolan to step in already and save what is left of the company he started. Chuck... . please.. you had good people who dedicated their lives to this company and help build something others could only dream of. If there is any hope of saving what is left of Rainbow, you have to take back the reigns. Pay out Josh and Ed.. and get rid of Sean Sullivan...

Pros
Attracts some really great talent. About half of the people that work at AMCN really do care about what they do. Working at AMCN gives you the opportunity to work on some of the most iconic series of all time.
Cons
- Extremely cliquey across the board and most senior staff have been there 15+ years leading to ineffective and toxic leadership. - Layoffs occur every 2-3 years (fun right?) and somehow the same people are always "magically" safe. Senior management rarely ever communicates these changes early enough or effectively leading to a high stress environment that breeds LOTS of gossip. - Human Resources lacks the "human"...

Unfortunately, no advice since it's the people at the top that are the problem.

Pros
Depending on which part of the company you're in, you'll end up with people who have incredibly specific domain knowledge, or if you end up with the startup group, you'll end up with people who have a lot of talent. LOVED working with the people there, no doubt.
Cons
I left because I realized that at some point, the only opinion that matters is the head of the group. Actually, a whole lot of people left because of that. It's a pity because we could have really done well.
Advice to Management
Moderinize benefits, management styles, etc
