Pros

Benefits and good systems make PRH a great place to work for folks in publishing. There is a drive for excellence and people are highly committed to their work.

Cons

The benefits are so good that it can be hard for people to leave. One downside: the slow but ongoing layoffs due to the integration of Penguin and Random House.

Pros

Great writing, Top tier production

Cons

The male director never asked me once how I was doing or offer any advice to calm my nerves (on my first production ever with them) which lead to a burdensome recording process.
