Pros

Competitive salary, having pretty much an unlimited expense account and name recognition are the only positives of working at this organization.

Cons

Highly unprofessional and competitive environment that is catty and superficial. Absolutely no work life balance and it feels more like you're part of a sorority rather than a corporate environment. I am resigning as soon as I receive another offer.

Amazing perks and brand, terrible management

Pros

Fantastic reputation and prestige. The access is incredible, and the name on your resume will help no matter where you go (well almost).

Cons

Creative people managing each other—really badly (and sometimes bitchily). No upward mobility and the attitude is "a million people would die for this job."

Pros

The internship provided experience of working at a magazine and what it is like to work for a huge corporation. You walk through the doors and see some of the most important people in the entertainment industry and then you work with them.

Cons

The pay was negative and unfortunately they decided to get rid of the internship program and it no longer exists.
