Pros

Great company culture. Great benefits. The content we're producing is important and causes change.

Cons

There are frequent hiring freezes and layoffs happen often. Empty positions aren't filled, which forces the remaining staff to pick up the slack for no additional compensation or salary bump. No raises. Hard to move up or be promoted within your magazine.
