Pros

Somewhat flexible work/life schedule, casual workplace, good benefits package.

Cons

Within the Production Department: There is a disconnect between the self-praise Upper Management gives itself (and the bonuses they receive) and low-level Employees Senior Management does not spend time visiting Employee areas to inquire about Employee lives or projects, much less level of satisfaction. No effort is made to bolster Employee morale or offer viable career paths. Employees in Production receive little to no recognition (including no special monetary bonuses for their products that do well in the marketplace, unlike their Editorial colleagues who do) for the hard work and dedication they show to producing an outstanding product. Morale is low, and employees have no incentive to work better or smarter, other than to maintain the status quo.

Pros

From home and relaxed working environment

Cons

They never know when the project will end or start so you can’t line up other work. Projected end 16th and we end 10 days early? Thats a lot of wages now I don’t have.
