Pros

Good culture and everyone is accessible from exec down. Flexible working nice office and free coffee fruit and a lot of days lunch from local companies. Free to be yourself.

Cons

Compensation package and benefits lacking for someone working in my field but to be expected from a publishing company i guess. Also there is progression opportunity's but not much opportunity for training outside management training.

Pros

- Everyone is super engaged with their work - Teams meet and share their progress regularly - Remote work that respects your timezone

Cons

- Unbearable amounts of micromanagement - Questionable journalistic ethics, e.g. "reviewing" products that have merely been unboxed and photographed, as well as excessive AI authorship - Extremely misleading work expectations — was told in interviews that I would be working on one story per day, resigned when I was expected to handle more than 15 in a week - Very reluctant to grant PTO or sick days — work "missed" while off is expected to be made up for twofold, and I was told at one point while sick with the stomach flu to "get over it" and "just work on 'easy' stuff today"
