Pros

Good vacation leave/sick time, decent benefits, good opportunity to explore and collaborate with different departments

Cons

Salary, so if you work news, which isn't 9-5, it's easy to work more hours, but not less.

Pros

Supporting journalism is the one good thing.

Cons

The culture needs improvement, with a strict in-office policy that may not work well for everyone. There also seems to be ongoing challenges with employee retention, which can impact team morale, consistency, and long-term stability. The tech guild and unions made me feel really uncomfortable with coworkers protesting outside the office.
