                Pros

                Weather isn't a hard value prop to sell and many brands have worked with The Weather Channel over the last 10 years.

                Cons

                Due to lack of product innovation and performance some brands loose interest over time. That's a challenge for most publishers but IBM should be able to overcome that challenge given their background in tech. However, IBM doesn't have media DNA so it's not surprising that they've stagnated. You must love the business you're in if you want to succeed. In addition, the team environment seems to be fragmented/at odds with one another. However, there are many good/competent people doing their best to make a living there.

                    Usually can sign off at a reasonable time

                    Cons

                    There isn't any opportunity to grow in the organization. It's very clear that they want you to come in and do your job and not expect anything else. Avoid staying here for too long because they pay new employees more than employees that have been here for years. Utterly disappointing leadership.

                      Accountant

                      I'm currently in a job (< 3 months) that I plan on leaving out (background, resume, mentions during interview) but one common question is "when can you start?" I don't want to tell them about my 90-day stay (very toxic, looking for an out), but don't want to find myself in a bind down the road either (picked up by background check, needing extra time to start so I can give my 2 weeks, etc.) My prior job was 9 months long and don't want to be a job hopper either so a little stuck here.

                      When someone says “We are eager to fill this position, we have no timeline but it should not drag out,” what are the chances I’m selected? This was at the third round interview, last Tue (5d ago) when I was told I should hear from HR next. The job was posted 30+ days ago. I applied for it on 10/22 and the interview process started 11/6 with an HR screening phone call.
