Pros

You will work with some of the most intelligent, wonderful people here, and be surrounded by incredible authors and books.

Cons

As with most big organizations, it can take a lot of effort to move those cogs. :) Some hiccups with the transition to digital, but still leads the pack. Very top-management heavy.

Pros

Great writing, Top tier production

Cons

The male director never asked me once how I was doing or offer any advice to calm my nerves (on my first production ever with them) which lead to a burdensome recording process.
