Pros
• Amazing people, from all different backgrounds
• Office location has a great view of NYC financial district
• Good pay
• Agile methodologies
• Profitable company
Cons
• Office politics are soul crushing
• Management has no respect for their employees skills or opinions
• No room for growth, no track to be promoted
• Sexist culture, all C-level and upper management for verticals are men. Very much a boys-club of old newspaper executives.
• Recent changes to benefits and culture have taken away many of the good benefits like extra vacation time, work from home policies, medical insurance
• No time to innovate, every second is filled with work.
• Teams are very silo'ed in every aspect, projects, code. Working across teams is very political and requires several different managers to "sign-off" on work, when if it was done organically, it would be done by the time approvals are done (if they get approved).
