Pros

If you dream of working in editorial, then there's no better place to get a start. Your experience is completely dependent on your managers/what books they edit and how invested they are in your career.

Cons

Everyone in publishing is underpaid and promotions in editorial are especially tricky.

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.
