Pros

The people, the books, the atmosphere. But this is all pre-RH takeover--pardon me, I mean "merger."

Cons

Random House management is craven and awful. I know this sounds like hyperbole. It's not.

Pros

Great writing, Top tier production

Cons

The male director never asked me once how I was doing or offer any advice to calm my nerves (on my first production ever with them) which lead to a burdensome recording process.
