Pluspunten

It's owned by Turner, which has excellent benefits. If you want to learn something, talk to your manager, then sign up for a passport, or just talk to a manager in that department and just do the job for a few days. Lots of great people work in the building, and networking opportunities are immense. It's better to be right than first - most people in the building believe that. And holding a meeting or networking at the Starbucks in the food court is the norm.

Minpunten

Well, take everything I said above with a grain of salt, because that's under the old management. There always were layoffs when I was there, and reorganizations, and one day your best buddy was there and then he was out. When I was let go, and someone in another dept. heard about it they took me to lunch, that's how nice folks are there. But it happens without warning, and to a lot of folks at once, and sometimes it makes no sense. The other drawbacks - its a 24/7 news operation, so who knows when you'll be working. My exec. producer appreciated the home/life balance, but the show comes first.

Pluspunten

Great for resume. Global audience.

Minpunten

CNN never promotes. It's not what it was. This management is all about profit and that hurts quality. No work life balance. Lots of racism.
