Pros

the newsroom crew is amazing and still loaded with talent despite years of demoralizing cuts. the paper is lucky that the staff sees journalism as a calling and not just a paycheck.

Cons

years of cuts and mismanagement have taken a toll. now that it's finalllyyy out of bankruptcy, the company needs to focus on boosting morale.

Pros

Good focus on long-form writing and journalism; lots of lovely people worked here and there was a nice community outside of the office; felt like a legit civic institution that people in L.A. care about.

Cons

Uneven management with unclear long-term priorities and conflicting top-down mandates. Not very willing to collaborate with the union.
