Pros
-High standard for content, and great reputation because of it -Relatively few office politics so colleagues are generally pleasant to work with -Adopted digital transformation early, leading in the industry
Cons
-Senior management usually promoted from editorial team and lack business and management experience, which is typical at media companies, not just at Caixin. -Lacks clear career path. Senior management and seasoned reporters (>5 years) are stable but the turnover of young reporters is pretty high. Many younger reporters quit after about 1-2 years and usually join a PR company since it pays much higher and offers opportunities to switch industries/functions. -No regular training. There are many lunch seminars but you can't really get much resource/training if you are a reporter and want to learn data journalism.
