Pros

You get to work on iconic IP and brands, but it's not worth the cost of the constant anxiety of whether you will be laid off or cut; and constantly questioning if you can trust anyone or if they will end up throwing you under the bus.

Cons

Horrible toxic culture, it's a game of thrones environment, leadership has no regard for the value of their employees or their mental well-being, decisions are made based on favoritism. People hoard information, contacts, relationships, and are extremely fake.

Pros

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

Cons

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.
