Penske Media Reviews

Pros

The CEO really cares about the welfare of his employees. Pay and benefits are decent. I've never worked for a company that makes me feel as safe and protected like PMC, especially during COVID. Their honesty is refreshing. Holiday/PTO time has increased since the beginning of my work tenure. Diversity is a growing and nurtured part of how PMC does business. Matching 401k. Good to great co-workers! Fun office environment, but working from home has also been a blessing during these times.

Cons

I am not sure if there is a gender wage gap like some reviews have said - if true, that needs to be rectified. Management needs to work on showing appreciation for and helping their staff (see below advice to management).

Pros

Always accessible, polite, helpful, supportive!

Cons

I think they are always willing to evolve and improve

Pros

Nice offices great former brands

Cons

Terrible work environment. This company is purely about cost cutting and getting cheap deals on legacy media. Then he guts them. Rinse and repeat. CEO lacks vision

Pros

The work is fun. Employeed through COVID-19, company paid for all COVID related expenses (testing etc).

Cons

-401K matching is poor. -Health insurance isn't great. -Salaries are well below what they should be. -Zero room for growth, don't expect a raise without threatening to leave. -IT department takes 10 years to answer a ticket, and has massive blocks on the apps you're allowed to use. -HR has no idea how they employees actually feel about the 'positive changes they're making' -Editor in Chief of Variety was brought back after PAID administrative leave for negative talk to a person of color, staff was asked to move on. -I would go as far as calling the company sexist, they boast female empowerment on a C-Suite level, but little support underneath. -Upper management has no real connection with the entry/mid-level staff -Depending on which departments you enter, it's super cliquey and incredibly difficult to meet people. -Zero organization in the org chart, everyone does everything and titles mean nothing.

Pros

A CEO who is truly invested in employees.

Cons

The chance togather with department colleagues in other offices.
