Pros

Great co-workers, Nice Benefits, The work is interesting and requires the use of my brain, which is awesome, lax dress code I think the job really comes down to who you work for. My bosses are wonderful, which in turn, makes my experience one of the better ones. I get to work on editorial projects that are interesting and I'm learning the craft of editing that'll benefit me in the future. My colleagues are wonderful at this level, and I've had pretty good interactions with upper management. No complaints yet . . .

Cons

Bad pay, sometimes long hours with no compensation, sometimes tedious work

Pros

Fully remote with all necessary tech provided, weekday schedule, great benefits, good leadership, small close-knit teams, generous PTO in addition to paid holidays

Cons

Base salary could be better but is offset with benefits package. Employee retention is high (a huge plus IMO) butcould limit upward mobility if you're looking for it.
