Pros

Laid-back office dress code, hybrid schedule (meaning you can occasionally work from home), a few catered lunches, a few free concert tickets.

Cons

The few pros of this job did NOT outweigh the cons, in my opinion. The base pay is objectively horrible, and they very rarely give out raises or provide opportunities for advancement within the company to compensate for this. It was immediately clear to me that the people in management roles don't care about the people working for them. They encourage an extremely toxic "every man for themself" mentality instead of a cooperative team outlook, and overwork the people they're supposed to be leading. While working there, I never met a single person who had a positive few of the company, and now I understand why. My experience there was truly miserable. Additionally, their journalistic ethics are shaky, at best. When I tried to bring attention to this issue I was met with ridicule and nothing was changed to bring some journalistic integrity to the company.

Pros

The team is very straightforward and helpful and they are willing to give you whatever tools necesary to win. One of the best teams I have ever worked with to be honestly.

Cons

Not many but you need to be flexible with hours as this is production work but that is industry standard.

Pros

The company had really good happy hours and events to attend. Food almost everyday.

Cons

Awful management team. Everyone will plot against you if they see potential. Very political culture and one boss there is a weak male figure in the office. If he doesn’t like you all the other managers follow suit. Mind you he has no power at all yet managers at his same level report to him. Must be experienced to work there really come in with a book of business with accounts that have lots of money because that’s all they care about. They will use and abuse you then cast you to the side make sure you have a second job to lean on. Frequent layoffs no managers of color either. Lots of red flags in the begging do not ignore them.
