The best workplace I've been at - Business Development Manager Penguin Random House Employee Review

Pros

I can't speak to all the changes since, but at the time, PRH was the best workplace I'd ever been at, and I only left for a better paying opportunity as no one gets into publishing for the paycheck. I worked with amazing individuals who were so supportive and passionate about what they did. There was no shortage of opportunities there, and I learned alot in my time and had fun along the way. Really great perks and benefits made up for the low pay.

Cons

Sometimes the "we're a family" mentality got in the way of productivity and could lead to favoritism among some people.

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.
