Pros

Great company benefits. Free books and plenty of paid time off.

Cons

Since Penguin Random House has many imprints, I can only speak for mine. Employees are overworked and undervalued. Salary does not reflect this amount of work. Management does not respect and often belittles employees.

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.
