Pros

You can learn a lot by working in the different departments/shows. Good medical coverage and the staff is very pleasant.

Cons

Like many companies NPR had a drastic reduction in work force in which I lost my job of 23 years. The way my exit was handled could have been better, in my opinion.

Pros

I was fully remote, learned so much from a great group of peers, the union is strong and active, pay was fair

Cons

The federal funding saga put a damper on morale, but that was pretty outside of the scope of what my team/manager could control.

tiny desks happen at work

Cons

soulless and corporate, management is all-powerful, benefits are slowly disappearing, few career prospects unless you fit a certain "profile"
