Pros

- The opportunity to work in the publishing industry without having to move east - Many people in the San Diego office are very nice - Hybrid work schedule

Cons

- Management is out of touch, cliquey, and doesn't offer employees trust and respect. Salaried employees' keycard scans into the building are monitored, problematic behavior is not addressed, and the SD office has minimal IT and HR support. - Different teams are treated much differently across the company as far as work/life flexibility, promotions, etc and there is not a cohesive culture. - Little to no upward mobility. Annual reviews and raises are predetermined rather than reflective of actual contributions, new skills, or workload. - HR contact is the daughter-in-law of the CEO. - Compensation is on the lower side.

Pros

The pay was pretty good.

Cons

No formal advancement structure. Too much work and stress with an expectation that you work outside normal working hours, weekends, during PTO and being out sick. Not enough employees in critical areas.
