Pros

1) Open to new and trending technologies and fast in making technology adoption decisions: always starting with pilot and small project and then rolling to wider adoption. 2) Good teamwork. You get almost instant help system engineering, data analytics, data warehouse, business, and developers. 3) knowledge sharing. There are Maker Monday meetings for sharing new development ideas across teams

Cons

Entertainment is minimal for developers to relax after heavy mental work. There is only one ping-pong table.

Pros

Supporting journalism is the one good thing.

Cons

The culture needs improvement, with a strict in-office policy that may not work well for everyone. There also seems to be ongoing challenges with employee retention, which can impact team morale, consistency, and long-term stability. The tech guild and unions made me feel really uncomfortable with coworkers protesting outside the office.
