WarnerMedia Reviews

Pros

Exceptional growth opportunities abound, if you take the time to look for them and work for them.

Cons

Pockets of resistance to culture change

Pros

Excellent brands, genuine interest in cross promotion, talented people

Cons

Has become very bureaucratic, very political as the HQ has shifted from Atlanta to NY/LA. Not the same Turner (literally: it's now all referred to as WarnerMedia)

Pros

This is a good place to go if you're looking to develop a new skill. They will allow you to learn on the job, even if you have zero knowledge or experience in that skill. Many teams have very good work-life balance, Lots of opportunities to learn & try new things, beautiful campus, great gym.

Cons

If you're looking for a company that prioritizes clean code & best practices, it's not this one. WarnerMedia is all about speed over quality. You'll find hard-coding, shortcuts, & magic numbers all over Production code. Production outages occur on a regular basis - and people seem to accept this as normal and OK. The technical debt is enormous, and no one seems to have any kind of plan to tackle it. There is no bandwidth to fix everything that's broken bc there is a constant pressure to keep churning out new features. It's a mess. I work overtime pretty much every week.

Pros

Opportunities, outstanding PTO policy, benefits, huge profile

Cons

Work-life balance can be pretty bad. Some bureaus don't have them at all. People will be required to work extra hours and days and not get a comp day. Managers are barely given time to go home and sleep. Some people are looked at poorly if they don't give the company hours upon hours of free labor.
