Pros
There are honestly no pros. The first couple of weeks are okay because you're a fresh face and people are trying to feel you out. After that, it goes straight downhill.
Cons
This is honestly the most unprofessional environment I've ever worked in. Upper management is extremely condescending and don't take the time to listen to employees, they completely take advantage of their positions because they have great relationships with the CEO. The editor-in-chief of both publications doesn't even have a degree in journalism, what kind of sense does that make? There's absolutely no work/life balance, its strictly just about work. You are expected to sacrifice your personal time for work without any recognition or incentives. The turnover rate at this company is unnecessarily high. During my five months with Five Star, I've seen over 20 people come and go in my department alone. And with that high turnover rate comes more work. You are expected to wear multiple hats without reaping receiving extra compensation, so don't even bother asking. They don't care about your life outside of work or your well being, they just need bodies to fill the office so they can overwork you until you're burnt out. Not to mention the lawsuits? I don't advise anyone work here because you will be overworked and underpaid. This place is a joke.
