Business outlook
Pros
You'll be a journalist, which is nice.
Cons
The pay is awful. The benefits are awful. Everyone is being laid off. You'll be expected to do the work of three people for the salary of less than one. Your boss will be a cold and unaccommodating corporate cog. Your complaints and/or suggestions will not be heard or even acknowledged. You'll watch newsrooms shutter and publications fold. You'll realize, swiftly and with no small amount of despair, that there is no future at Digital First Media. You'll watch good people lose their jobs and you'll wonder when you're next. Eventually, you will be. Save yourself the years of penniless toiling. DFM is one of the largest laughing stocks of the journalism industry. Do not work for them.
