Pros

Great location, Like the people that I work with, Work / Life the best

Cons

Not ever knowing what is going on with Senior Mgmt. and the direction of the company. Chicago office feels like a third wheel. Senior employees are getting shafted with severance. Not knowing if I should stay or should I go. All these new SVP's and VP's what do they do and who the hell are they?

Pros

Advancement for people who showed initiative. Longevity for employees Loyalty of your coworkers Some of the most fun loving people I have ever met

Cons

Hefner had a tenancy to be resistant to any type of change, ultimately hurting the company The image of the company out-shown its profits. However thanks to the hard-work of the employees Playboy will always be successful in-spite of itself Also...too many VP's how many people VP's does it take to stand up to one eccentric old man?

Pros

Great work life balance. Great camaraderie among the general employee population. Fun parties and a chance to work for a worldwide brand

Cons

Not many opportunities for advancement. Company has limited resources and constantly downsizing. Executive team doesn't explain the vision of the company to staff. There is almost an "Office Space" of promotion process where people commit acts that would get them fired at most places but are then actually promoted.
