Pros

CNN is a great company to work for. There's a lot of creativity and flexibility. The brand is so well known everyone flocks to CNN so you get to meet a lot of really great people and cover really great news stories.

Cons

It's hard to move up. You can hit a glass ceiling pretty quickly and that ceiling can choke out some really good talent at the bottom.
