      Pros

      People are very nice. Projects can be challenging and interesting. Work life balance is great.

      Cons

      Moving up to senior or from senior to staff is extremely difficult. There has to be "business need", not just merit. Technical bar could be higher and pay isn't that competitive.

      Pros

      Challenging and rewarding work. You'll work in an environment that publishes the news everyday, if you are excited about helping people learn more about the world, you'll love it here. Good benefits, hybrid work, and really smart coworkers.

      Cons

      Does not pay like big tech but as an IC you'll be part of union with job protections
