Pros

MTV Networks has a very fun atmosphere. The people are all nice and generally very young. They are all very supportive and look out for one another when it comes to finding other jobs and helping one another out. The Lodge in 1515 Broadway has great food for cheap prices. Its convenient working in times square since it is only a 10 minute walk from Penn Station for commuters and right by a whole bunch of subways for NY residents. The views from the windows are great. You get an hour off for lunch every day. I recommend it a lot.

Cons

Sometimes they have too little for everyone to do and there is a lot of downtime. It would be good if they helped out entry level workers a bit more.

Pros

People who were at Paramount before the Skydance merger remain talented and amazing people.

Cons

The post-Skydance merger Paramount is an aimless corporate with zero resources, and respect for existing employees. Senior management are coming from Disney, and they’re hiring all their previous Disney colleagues, while laying off employees that have been at Paramount through ages. There has also been a shift in demographics where White men control the power. It’s disheartening to see amazing legacy leadership get demoted and sidelined in favor of incoming White male leaders from Disney. The new senior management will say things like, “We want to invest in people that will stay with us and grow,” yet layoff an entire division that have kept this company running through all the transitions. The disrespect is just ridiculous.
