Pros

It will only get better after this gig, trust me.

Cons

To keep it concise, Ozy is not a real business. Carlos is your quintessential bad guy who mastered the art of persuasion. Zero business acumen. Zero vision for product innovation. Zero ability to build and scale systems. I think the Tarot cards suggested to go Don Lemon route but the ego got on the way, and now a few dozen people go to work every day thinking that they are working on something meaningful and rewarding. They are not. I got you intrigued? Check their headcount evolution in the last few years. Marketing, Sales, TV leadership - people barely last a year. Finance leadership is my favorite with the quickest turnover the industry has seen. Want more? Editorial effort is a function of half a dozen freelancers. YouTube viewership, email newsletters - all driven by very questionable practices. Sadly, companies like this get to carry on for some time. Try to avoid or join for amusement only.
