Pros

Work with very intelligent, capable, ambitious people. They value employees who are active, involved, ambitious and open to new responsibilities. If you prove yourself as one of these people, you can get involved in very business-critical, high-profile projects and awarded and recognized for successful work. The company is surprisingly innovative and progressive. It's a true media company, not a newspaper company.

Cons

Sometimes highly political and bureaucratic. Some great ideas get stifled because of this, but those who have the stamina to see a project through multiple rounds of rejection, can usually see it through.

Pros

The NYT may be the best place to work if you want to focus on doing the best journalism out there. You will have the resources you need and will be working with many of the best people.

Cons

Their benefits for people with families are lame. For example, slim maternity leave, not a day of paid paternity leave, and no help with daycare. You are likely to only get a raise if you have an offer from elsewhere.
