Pros

Working hand-in-hand with the publisher, Veken Gueyikian, was a wonderful experience where I learned a ton about how an online media company generates ad revenue. Veken was patient with me for the many months it took to master online ad placement and scheduling. He has created a unique workflow using various productivity suites that I have since integrated into my own endeavors. His communication skills were topnotch and is a fantastic teacher. They also tapped me for my writing skills helping to craft a few grant applications with various nonprofits. Overall, this media company is a testament to entrepreneurism and small enough to be able to learn every nook-and-cranny how to survive in an intensely competitive market. Oh -- the health care is super comprehensive and generous!

Cons

In the end, I did miss working in a bigger office with more fellow workers to learn from, but that was my choice to dive into a smaller operation to be able to maximize the learning curve.

Pros

The team is amazing and varied, allowing many ideas and voices to assume room at the table. The editorial process being my favorite aspect of work at HA. Fast paced and organized, the daily meetings keep the mission at play and the work on track.

Cons

Due to the fast pace, editors have to communicate their pitch with efficiency and extreme clarity.

Pros

Hyperallergic is staffed and managed by independent thinkers with strong personalities. It's also the only New York art publication with a truly diverse staff, which makes working there a more enriching experience. It's not for everyone: Traditional, market-oriented thinking and content are discouraged. The focus is always on the community instead of wealthy collectors, superstar artists, and mega galleries. Working at Hyperallergic has been amazing for my professional growth as a writer. The editors are supportive: they want to see you succeed and reach new career heights, including personal projects on the side. There's also a lot of freedom to bring new, creative ideas.

Cons

Daily publishing deadlines can be tough, but that's journalism.
