Pros

The Post is a great learning environment, in which I am always surrounded by people with a lot of knowledge to share. I always feel comfortable to reach out to anyone within my organization or others from other departments, with the confidence that everyone and anyone I reach out to will be willing to help and share knowledge. On top of that the Post is striving hard to make sure all employees and consumers of our product, are proud of belonging and being a part of this great company.

Cons

I don't have any cons to share about this company.

Pros

Talented coworkers who care strongly about the mission of supporting independent journalism.

Cons

Context: tech side of the org - C-suite will pay lip service to disruptive innovation and allowing ideas to come from anywhere, but at the end of the day you will realize they always had a pet project in mind and nothing else actually mattered. Furthermore, those ideas will have you saying "...that's what we came up with?" - C-suite & other leadership (in my professional opinion) regularly cherry-pick and misinterpret data, intentionally or not, oftentimes to support the narrative they want. - C-suite can't handle negative feedback or opposing ideas, and has actively chastised employees for speaking up. I have never felt so unsafe using my voice and challenging power, which is ironic at a newspaper. - It's famously difficult to get promoted here. Your career will progress more slowly than you ever thought was possible. - There is so much potential for growth and innovation, but if you stay for long enough you'll realize it's not possible due to the rot and misaligned incentives at the top of the organization.
