      Pros

      You will always feel supported here by your peers. Everyone here is aligned with the same goals, which makes you feel like you are apart of something big! From sending our audience updated info during social unrest, to thought provoking editorials, I know that we are making a true impact. Everyone here understands me and I feel like the work I do is appreciated.

      Cons

      Internal processes can be cleaned up. I have worked for major companies and I believe that to get things done there is a long drawn out process. I do believe this can be fixed and its due to the company being a start up.

      Not a real company

      Pros

      Making friends with other people who are also struggling because they work there

      Cons

      Zero direction. Managers who play favoritism. Misleading if not flat out lying to employees. This place is a giant struggle. Everyone is jumping ship, or being let go in groups. This problem started well before Covid 19. They have ZERO direction. I don't think it will be around much longer, at least not under current leadership!

      Pros

      I guess you could consider it a "learning experience" albeit a very traumatic one.

      Cons

      The entire operation is a SCAM. How dare they claim to "love Black people" yet exploit their own employees and greater community.
