Pros
It's Paramount Pictures... it looks great on a resume and feels good to say out loud. Additionally, it is a well-known entity and a mostly fun and reasonably "laid-back" workplace compared to the more "corporate" atmosphere of other entertainment companies.
Cons
It has a lot of chiefs and not very many injuns, as the saying goes. Compared to other industries, the titles of "management" at Paramount are highly overstated to the allowed responsibilities. Everything is top-secret, no sharing with vital partners, or internally if there is even the chance that it might get "leaked" to the press... as if the press doesn't find out from the 1000's of theatres or retail customers.
