Pros
* Amazing team * Amazing positive daily contribution to the world As an Intern, they cap you at 20-hours per week except in extreme written circumstances. The pay is high for the US, but not livable for part-time in NYC. You'll need a second job or some alternative living situation. The good news is that they're very strict about working hours. While salaried staff will work a *lot* of overtime, interns are strictly forbidden from working extra time. And while they may extend an Intern's contract, there's a cap of one 6-month extension. After that you'll either be hired (not likely) or will have to move on. DN! will not exploit the cheap labor of Interns.
Cons
* Fast and anxious workplace with morning newsroom deadlines
