Pros
Great co-workers Manager fought to extend contract Generous with software/hardware updates
Cons
*No training. Editors and associate editors started running with no idea of the scope of their authority to audit/edit/rewrite material on which they were working. *Freezing office all year round. *Use of terminology which is not standard in publishing; it took me about two weeks to realize that when they were referring to "minis" in documents, they meant "thumbnail" images. *Although good at updating software and desktop hardware, way way way behind in fully utilizing publishing tools available. Editors should be working in InCopy, not doing mark ups in pdf to go back to outsourced comp vendors. Cumbersome, awkward, and rife with the possibility for propagating errors. *Rah Rah e-mails and updates from CEO, versus whole floors of empty cubicles and offices and co-workers disappearing with no warning.
