      Pros

      Penguin Random House cares about its employees. Fabulous benefits, great facility, occasional bonuses, fitness reimbursement--the works. Strong values and commitment to publishing great books.

      Cons

      It's difficult to get promoted at certain imprints--especially those that are more established. Also, depending on the department you work in, work/life balance becomes nearly impossible to maintain.

      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.
