Pros

- Learn a lot - If you're smart you can network with TV execs, people at MTV, get to know the power players in the building - Access to artists/celebs - Chill culture

Cons

- Viacom will not hire you as a staff employee, which means no benefits & no job security - Management sucks - No one is really talented, including your own boss - You're a robot doing what any 12th grader can do - Sexist, prepare for your boss to make gross comments or stare at your body in inappropriate ways - You are a token if you're a person of color and will be treated as such - Co-workers throw you under the bus - Reputation of VH1 having trashy reality shows follows you
