Pros
Amazing staff, some very talented, mission driven and committed journalists in text, photos and video. The work of the AP underpins much of the news ecosystem and is really essential to how thousands of millions of people around the globe understand our world. In this day and age of invented "facts" and alternative realities, this is crucial.
Cons
A slowly dying business model as the AP's media customers are struggling mightily and the AP's revenue is dipping precipitously. As a result news gathering budgets are slashed every year. Not sustainable for long. Get in - and out - while you can! Lots of bureaucracy - hard to get things done. Big but sluggish.
