Pros

Cool to see celebrities come in everyday. Definitely had some surreal moments where you come back from lunch and Dana White walks past you

Cons

The truth is they don't care about you unless you're a top tier content talent.

Pros

Flexible work culture, pretty decent pay

Cons

No culture. All the intern reviews of 5 stars are from kids in college who post on instagram and twitter and want a job at Barstool when they graduate - so the score is grossly misrepresented. Absolutely no process and getting advice or clarity from anyone on the management team is impossible unless you physically corner them and demand an answer. Content might keep the ball rolling, but the sales/business/merch teams keep the lights on.
