Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

Completely decimated Rodale and its staff. The ones that are left feel like sitting ducks. The ones that were let go were like the Walking Dead. No direction from Hearst in the slightest especially to the employees that were left behind especially by the ones that were in charge of the move and transition

Good enough

Pros

The offices are big and there's a good work environment. There are some great perks associated with working in the Hearst Tower like the very affordable cafeteria or a great gym fully equipped.

Cons

HR staff could be more helpful and attentive. The company isn't environmentally or socially conscious enough for my standards, it isn't easy to recycle.
