Cons
-Corporate is very arrogant, self-important, and condescending to non-leadership cast members -It's WHO you know, not WHAT you know). Very obvious nepotism and favoritism -ZERO opportunities to grow unless you brown nose and/or become best friends with management -Values of company are not taken seriously -Management will address issues but will not take action to resolve them -Overall too much politics in this workplace (if you are like me and cannot even fake being fake then this is NOT the place for you). It is like high school all over again.
