      Pros

      World-renowned paper, gets much respect from other employers, friends and family. Better funded than most media. A lot of software development happening.

      Cons

      Retention of pre-Bezos employees seems to be very low priority. The union is weak, don't get stuck in a union job. Very little promotion from within. Culture is fake.

      Pros

      Supporting journalism is the one good thing.

      Cons

      The culture needs improvement, with a strict in-office policy that may not work well for everyone. There also seems to be ongoing challenges with employee retention, which can impact team morale, consistency, and long-term stability. The tech guild and unions made me feel really uncomfortable with coworkers protesting outside the office.
