Pros

You will learn how to work with really difficult people. I guess there is a lesson in that.

Cons

It is a very political environment. A lot of negativity. A ton of focus on the CEO's passion ... getting Newsmax on TV. They ignore where the money is made ... financial publications and health publications. Leadership is controlling. The top managers are only there because they are "yes men" to the CEO. Not bad people really. They just don't dare challenge him. The biggest negative is that they have you sign a two year non-compete, and will enforce it ... even if you are laid off (which I was not). Don't work there unless they waive the 2-year non-compete.
