Pros

Lots of opportunity to strike out on your own if you are entrepreneurial. Best journalists in the business, bar none.

Cons

Very, very chaotic. Network has not decided what it wants to be and pretty much everyone is running around without any idea what they should be doing. No concept of work/life balance. None.

Pros

Great for resume. Global audience.

Cons

CNN never promotes. It's not what it was. This management is all about profit and that hurts quality. No work life balance. Lots of racism.
