Pros

Lots of opportunities to take on projects that are beyond the realm of your actual position, as well as networking opportunities galore.

Cons

Too many deadweights who just "get by" while others put in way too much work to make up for it. Salary lowballing is the norm, promotions and raises are usually put off or explained away until the deserving person leaves the company.

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.
