Pros

best in class products, top talent in the biz (for the most part), solid perks. Most importantly, good opportunities to learn and grow if your perfom

The politics are trick and some really talented people get pushed out by others with unwarrented egos. Digital is getting stronger and better than alot of mag companies, but still has a way to go
