Pros

If you are willing to work hard and go above and beyond the job description, there are lots of opportunities to learn about the business and move up

Cons

Job security can be an issue in this ever-changing media business. It is a fast-paced industry that is not for the lazy or the unmotivated employee as you often work long hard hours.
