Pros

- WWE is such a large and dynamic corporation and there are so many potential opportunities spanning different departments: from television production to consumer products and marketing. - It is a fast paced environment with an ever-evolving and growing business plan. You are truly kept on your toes and not without a challenge; there is never really an opportunity to become bored or complacent. - Compensation and benefits are a healthy package. - WWE as a whole does so much for the outside community: Cancer research, Veteran's, Children's organizations, Special Olympics, etc. The impact is truly amazing to witness. - Management truly tries to set you up for success and give opportunities to show what employees are capable of. Because of this, expectations are very high to perform at your best. But hard workers who produce quality work thrive and are rewarded with even more opportunities. Management truly rewards the top players over those who simply "do their job".

Cons

- Information and long-range planning is not always pushed down to lower levels until near deadlines which makes the environment more reactive than proactive at times. - Interdepartmental conflicts can on few occasion create difficulties in scheduling for projects. - Work life balance truly depends on the department you are in. Some departments are your typical weekday workday schedule. Others, specifically on the TV side, are centered around the production schedule, PPVs, or other air dates. But it should be clearly understood going into the job given the live broadcast nature of the Company.

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.
