Pros

The people are very passionate and the company is an industry leader for a reason. You are challenged creatively and there are a ton of benefits, including live event tickets and a substantial benefits package. The corporate gym is also a nice touch.

Cons

There is a very “cliquey” feel between different groups that sometimes gives off a high school vibe. Promotions are ridiculously slow there is no way to be confident that you are going to get one. Compensation should start higher; there’s no excuse for a company this profitable to pay their employees so low compared to other media companies.

Pros

-Competitive salary -Solid benefits package, including 401(k) match, tiered health plans, year-end time off, and maternity leave

Cons

-The organization has a disproportionately high number of decision-makers relative to individual contributors (approximately 2–3 senior leaders per one worker). -Compensation growth has slowed since the TKO merger. Fun benefit perks have been canceled after the merger. -Expect frequent late hours and weekend work. -Senior leadership often demonstrates a lack of clear strategic direction. Many leaders have been with the company for over a decade and continue to be promoted, which may limit fresh perspectives. -Workplace culture can be challenging, with behavior such as yelling and degrading team members during team meetings, deflecting responsibility followed by the occasional gaslighting, and a lack of accountability are accepted. -Recognition and rewards are limited, with modest merit increases (around 3%) and no bonus structure. Given the workload, leadership challenges, and limited growth incentives, this role may not be worthwhile unless you are entering at a senior leadership level.
