Pros

I've been working here for a little under a year and everyone is super friendly. The pay isn't the greatest, but the managers recognize this and they try to make up for it in other ways. They get a Peapod delivery of snacks for the breakroom once a week. This includes fruits, yogurt, cottage cheese, breakfast bars, chips, crackers, etc. They also do things like bringing in a comfort dog to one of the conference rooms every once in a while, offering many types of pie on Pi Day (3/14), hot chocolate on Valentines Day, paid summer picnic, paid holiday party, an ice cream truck, wellness challenges and many other things. And it's especially nice to walk out the door at the end of the day and not have to worry about anything. And if I get a bad book with lots of errors, it only lasts a few days or so and then I get another book. Great job for a social introvert!

Pros

Tantor Media is a company that has grown by 300% in the last 5 years. It has gone from a mom and pop small business in a garage to a multi-million dollar per year business while holding onto small business values. One of the only growing fields in publishing. The management (upper and middle) takes great pride in creating a work environment that is happy, flexible and conducive to maintaining work/life balance-- while balancing an intense amount of growth. Don't listen to one unhappy reviewer. Some people get to read for a living! It's not always going to be Pulitzer prize material. Company parties, BBQs, ice cream trucks, walking groups, full benefits, flexible scheduling...this is a team atmosphere. It is still publishing and in southeastern CT. The pay reflects that, but most of us who went to school for a liberal arts degree knew what we'd be getting into

Cons

Need more parking, pay isn't the greatest ever
