Pros

- Good benefits - Generous time off - Charming office space - Small full-time staff - Pet friendly - On-site kitchen - Great location

Cons

If you're considering a job here, my best recommendation would be to use this as a stepping stone for building your experience. Some quick things to consider: - Turnover rate is EXTREMELY high - Lack of appropriate training for new hires - Lack of support and positive reinforcement - Overall environment can be very oppressive - A failure and breakdown of communication between departments and from upper management to subordinates - Low company morale - Lack of trust - Polices and procedures change with little notice that can affect important aspects of your job - Poor customer service and lack of attention to important issues - Employees are regarded based on appearance

Pros

I first started interning at Pulse during the summer of 2014- it was my very first internship position and an incredible experience. From the first week, they had me doing hands-on work. I covered restaurants, shows at the Paramount and even after my internship ended, they invited me to be a photographer at the photo booth at their annual Battle of the Burger event- a really fun experience! During my time, I developed a very good working relationship with the digital editor and because of that she offered me a position to continue with them as a freelancer when I went back to school upstate. It was an amazing experience and the only reason I left was because I had accepted a recent offer and it would have been a conflict of interest. But, the employees and work environment here are great. Definitely a little laid back but it was fun and there was always something new to work on.

Cons

Interns are unpaid. I wanted to return as an intern the following summer but needed a paid internship.
