Pluspunten

I had a good run and I was promoted internally a number of times. I would say that was highly manager or leadership dependent though, so quite a personal take. On the brand side, we had a lot of freedom locally to run with the IP and create impactful work.

Minpunten

It's a very tumultuous time in the company due to the pending acquisition, but then it's also a bit that way in the media industry at large. Due to this, there are tight budgets, hiring freezes, project cancellations and near-constant restructures. US HQ decisions flow out to international markets and so, don't necessarily make sense locally.

Pluspunten

People who were at Paramount before the Skydance merger remain talented and amazing people.

Minpunten

The post-Skydance merger Paramount is an aimless corporate with zero resources, and respect for existing employees. Senior management are coming from Disney, and they’re hiring all their previous Disney colleagues, while laying off employees that have been at Paramount through ages. There has also been a shift in demographics where White men control the power. It’s disheartening to see amazing legacy leadership get demoted and sidelined in favor of incoming White male leaders from Disney. The new senior management will say things like, “We want to invest in people that will stay with us and grow,” yet layoff an entire division that have kept this company running through all the transitions. The disrespect is just ridiculous.
