Pros

A paycheck and health insurance.

Cons

The egos are insane. This is a small, regional publication that most of the country has never heard of, and they act like they're god. Small-minded, backstabbing, distrustful environment. No transparency, clique-ish, favoritism on full display. This is where the dregs that can't make it anywhere else in DC end up.
