Pros

Some of the people you work with will be great. The company name looks good on a resume.

Cons

If management is considered valuable they will be kept despite high turnover from their subordinates. Yelling and verbal abuse is allowed with 0 repercussions. If you leave voluntarily you do not get paid for your unused vacation time, so be sure to use it beforehand. You may also be lied to about why a role is open in the first place so beware, do your due diligence. Salaries are also pretty low but I believe that is standard for publishing. 401K is trash (company match doesn't start until 1 year of employment). The work-life balance needs improvement as well as diversity and inclusion efforts.

Pros

Great to be in proximity to such amazing brands like Vogue, Vanity Fair and the New Yorker

Cons

Pay is absolutely criminal unless you're "bonus eligible." Another billion dollar company crying poverty. Also, absolutely zero possibility of advancement.
