Fun place to work, little growth and management leaves you in the dust

Business Outlook

Pros

Fun environment, lots of opportunities and small team can get you noticed. Young team helps grow.

Cons

Promotions and pay raises are scarce, and yet extremely warranted for morale. The place is depressing and everyone works super long hours for such littler pay and no pat on the back. It gets tiring. Pay is insulting. Management doesn't listen. HR doesn't care...it's a sad state of affairs. Management and senior editors take all the credit and everyone is super territorial. Not a big place for growth or making a decent income.

Pros

Good benefits, access to the best industry resources and great opportunity to work with highly skilled professionals

Cons

Poor compensation for entry level positions and since promotions/pay-raises are based on % of current salary it becomes frustrating over time
