Pros

The people are wonderful, and the purpose--making books that people will love--is hard to beat.

Cons

Long hours. It wasn't uncommon to work an 11 hour day, and on the way out see others still at their desk.

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.
