Pros

It's every journalist's job to work at NYT. And there are tons of perks: access to talks from every department, the stability of a large company that is financially secure, and some truly brilliant people to work with. Sometimes you get the rush of producing something really spectacular.

Cons

It's a corporation. Sometimes you feel like a cog in a machine that will get lip service but not much more. They tried to bust the tech union which was really disheartening. I was on a small team that sometimes had an unrealistic culture around work/life balance that they carried over from former work experience.

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
