      Pros

      The place is starved for ideas and even more starved for ideas that can become products. If you have them, they'll take them. And probably ruin them.

      Cons

      If you are a technical hire, you are working at-will. You can be fired at any time for any reason or no reason at all. My estimate is that ~20% of NYTimes technical hires are let go in semi-regular purges. Those purges are bound to be more frequent as the Times ads business tanks and the company's new product failures pile up.

      Pros

      Challenging and rewarding work. You'll work in an environment that publishes the news everyday, if you are excited about helping people learn more about the world, you'll love it here. Good benefits, hybrid work, and really smart coworkers.

      Cons

      Does not pay like big tech but as an IC you'll be part of union with job protections
