Pros
The cafeteria? No wait, maybe the little card with your picture on it and all the logos for the various Viacom subsidiaries. For some reason people still seem to think the name has cache (but even that is vanishing). I think you get to keep the card when you leave.
Cons
Managerial incompetence, lack of focus, lack of communication between divisions, poor salary, poor medical plan. While there have been rumblings at MTV of "change" and "new directions", the results have been mixed. Management often lacks experience in the fields related to their projects, and rely on others to feed them the knowledge they don't have.
