Pros
One of the few journalism outfits that is actually expanding its staff. Traffic is up, and the site is looking to add verticals -- where everyone else these days seems to be cutting back and laying off. The top editors have restored a sense of calm to the newsroom after a period of some pretty extreme volatility -- one of them even came back to TheWrap after leaving a few years ago. Real opportunity for growth. Summer interns have landed full-time jobs -- and gotten promotions.
Cons
The pace is pretty intense. If you're not a news junkie, this might seem a little too intense -- there's a definite period of adjustment if you're not used to breaking news environment.
