Long and late nights, weird structure

Business Outlook

Pros

If you love basketball, it’s an amazing job. You learn a lot and get top-tier experience publishing for a global platform. Great name on resume.

Cons

Cliquey when in office, very late nights, you have to take a 2 month break after 10 months so your employment isn’t considered a full year (probably so they don’t have to give you full benefits..), hard to see growth there.
