Business outlook
Pros
If you want to work for a massive corporate publisher, this is one of five options. Also, everyone below manager except exec assistants is unionized.
Cons
Low morale, poor management (all middle managers are terrified of being fired, at least in sales) and general lack of vision, energy, or community. They rarely promote smart or hardworking assistants, so most leave to work for Penguin Random or smaller houses. HR will stonewall you, the Peter Principle reigns supreme, and everyone tries to pretend that everything is fine. (It is not fine.)
