Pros

HC is a good place to start a career in publishing or media. It's the kind of place that teaches you to learn through trial and error , rather than mentoring because upper management is even more overwhelmed with work than their staff.

Cons

The culture is very gossip and secretive. The executives have their "favorites" and it's obvious to the entire company who they are. These people can get away with pretty much anything.

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.
