Pros

Challenging work -- ideal for young, up-and-coming journalists to get their feet wet. Brilliant editors who double as mentors. Delicious, healthy breakfast and lunch prepared by the company's private chefs make for great brain fuel.

Cons

Worst IT policies in the history of publishing. Overprotecting the company's precious "secrets" only obstructs employees from getting their jobs done in an efficient manner.

Pros

Great to be in proximity to such amazing brands like Vogue, Vanity Fair and the New Yorker

Cons

Pay is absolutely criminal unless you're "bonus eligible." Another billion dollar company crying poverty. Also, absolutely zero possibility of advancement.
