Pros

Some of the people who work here are great, and the general feeling of helping each other survive the management culture lead to some great personal friendships.

Cons

The whole management of the company is like some bizarre 80s throwback. There is no respect for the staff by the senior management, who try to rule over their employees using fear. I've witnessed people having mugs thrown at them and being shouted at through a megaphone, and otherwise intimidated. I survived a year there and moved on.

Pros

You are (broadly) left to write what you like on the editorial side, so long as you occasionally feature a picture of the proprietor and his wife at some charity event or other. The company is much more interested in counting the money than bothering themselves with the product.

Cons

Do not expect to get a pay rise, luxuries like tea or coffee and, in the London office, prepare to see mice running about. The management team, led by the notorious proprietor, are a small, sneering boys club and best avoided.
