Pros

Relaxed environment and agreeable co-workers almost make up for lack of financial compensation and miniscule salary.

Cons

Lack of performance reviews leads to an unfair balance at the top. Low base salaries are enough to turn anyone off from publishing, in general.

Pros

Fully remote with all necessary tech provided, weekday schedule, great benefits, good leadership, small close-knit teams, generous PTO in addition to paid holidays

Cons

Base salary could be better but is offset with benefits package. Employee retention is high (a huge plus IMO) butcould limit upward mobility if you're looking for it.
