Pros
I've worked for a number of organizations in the past, most for several years at a time and never experienced the challenging, collegial atmosphere that The Recorder affords me. I've been with the organization for nearly ten years now and find the work as interesting as ever. The job has changed over the years reflecting the changes that media companies have all experienced over that same time. Management has not remained stagnant in the face of these changes and as a result we have a company that is healthy and growing. Most significant to my happiness here is working with many first class people who also call The Recorder their home. If I have a question about virtually anything there is always someone willing to help — all I have to do is reach out. In large part the feeling of satisfaction in my job comes from the knowledge that I have found a solution to a particular situation. What inspires me most though is the care that management takes to inspire us all to achieve at the highest levels. My superiors are never condescending or demeaning the way past employers have been. Seeing bosses working as earnestly as I do really helps me put forth my best effort every day.
Cons
