Pros

The name. It carries clout and can open doors. It also gives an unusual opportunity to see behind the scenes at the actual 30 Rock. A peek at how they make the magic happen. If you're lucky, some of the management staff may also take an active interest in mentoring you. IF you're lucky.

Cons

It's as formal as an old school law firm. And the thinking is often as outdated as that, as well. I've never seen such politicking, in-fighting and backbiting. There's no job security. If you want this kind of uncertainty, you might as well go join a start-up.

Pros

Great perks and benefits! Free theme park tickets, cable, peacock subscription. Good place for interns

Cons

Entry level pay is very poor and not sustainable. Lot of politics when it comes to promotions and it is based more on relationship with management rather than actual performance. Upper management just takes all your work and presents as their own. Fake it till you make is at every level of this organization. Hired people as remote and now is laying everyone off.
