- 3.0May 3, 2023Marketing ExecutiveCurrent Employee, more than 1 yearNew York, NY
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.

- 2.0Jul 11, 2023Client Success ManagerCurrent Employee, more than 3 yearsNew York, NY
Pros
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.
