Pros

Working for one of the only prestigious news orgs left. Big office. Looks good on a resume.

Cons

An unreasonable management at odds with the tech union. Makes for major morale issues. All positions are underpaid compared to others in the industry but management refuses to pay competitive comp nor benefits. There is also a major shift to return to office, with 2 days a week with 3+ indicated in the future.

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
