      Pros

      The New York times is a great workplace. They have an awesome product - the news. The mission is clear, and has a worldwide message.

      Cons

      As a software engineer, the Digital / website departments continue to get shafted to the whims of the Newsroom. Many promising ideas to innovate in the field of online news production are continually poo-poohed by the newsroom, crippling their attempts to move into a continuing leadership role in the field.

      Rapidly changing strategy and unclear goals will not save the Times

      Pros

      * Insight into how news is generated at one of the world's most popular papers * Rub shoulders with news-makers and other minor celebrities * Free books and access to New York City events and institutions * Free access to Premium Crossword Puzzles * Bragging rights (this used to be true, but now people feel sorry for you)

      Cons

      * Majority of employees are disgruntled and unhappy, making for a poor working environment * Politics outweighs disciplined thought when making decisions * Lack of clear management strategy or goals adds to the difficulty in decision making * Performance is not measured consistently or tied to pay
