Pros

Good people to work with, and a good working environment. Work hours are good, no long hours necessary. Interesting projects.

Cons

General lack of technical understanding amongst employees, but particularly upper management. All they understand is broadcast, and that's all they care about because that's what affects their bonuses. They don't understand social media, and they cut digital because the profit margins are (currently) lower than in broadcast. They can't see the freight train coming right at them, and they'll abandon their jobs or be fired because they couldn't visualize the future, but what do they care? They talk a good game, and pretend to care, but they talk out of both sides of their mouths. They got their bonuses and will leave the company struggling to survive. The company is not poised to succeed in the future digital world.

Pros

Company is going through a lot of positive change and is becoming increasingly competitive to other media sites. Flatter organization with better up and down communication. HQ in downtown San Francisco. Location is excellent.

Cons

Currently going through some legacy issues of management and technology, but it's at the tail end of the process.
