Pros

You are surrounded by a plethora of opportunities. You have access to multiple Turner locations and have the potential to work for a variety of departments within the TURNER brand, not just CNN. Amazing and innovative company! Stock within company Great benefits Many people have started within tours and moved on to variety of areas within the CNN/Turner company.

Cons

You have to create your own pathway out of your position. Entry level position, but there is no direct path or connection between tours and other departments within the company. You could spend numerous years in tours, but it doesn't equal experience to move into other departments. Not easy to transition into other departments. Dealing with high volumes of the general public, foreign and domestic.
