Pros

PRH as a corporate goes out of it's way to keep make it's employees comfortable: 4 weeks of vacation (after first year), $500 annually toward health/fitness, 401k matching, charitable giving matching, sports teams, discount programs, social activities, free and discounted book programs, a sabbatical programs and one huge holiday party. Work environments differ radically between the different imprints, though!

Cons

VERY big corporate, which has some obvious drawbacks. And, in general, publishing doesn't pay as well as many other major NYC industries.

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.
