      Pros

      Brilliant co-workers and editors. Great access.

      Cons

      Upper management is sleazy. GET EVERYTHING IN WRITING, they will back out on their word. Mission plan has changed to maximize the most amount of money for upper management as possible. They treat part-time staff like dirt.

      Pros

      Work from home is good. Fitness app allows you to earn points for gift cards and money in your paycheck. Good amount of PTO.

      Cons

      Your experience working there varies widely depending on who your manager is. Editor pay is low, but writer pay is high. Same people seem to get promoted all the time.
