Just don't do it.

Pros

Honestly, I don't have much to put here. The office location is convenient, I guess.

Cons

I did not enjoy working for this company. There is too much turnover and not enough direction. Managers are passive aggressive and rudderless. I saw people crying quite frequently. This was an overall dud of a job and I am very glad to be at a different publisher.

Pros

I enjoy working with my part-time writers.

Cons

Upper management is all over the place. Every six months there is a new mandate and each one is weaker than the last. The content is so watered down at this point we may as well be an in-flight magazine.
