Pros

Friendly entry level employees. Get to travel once in a blue moon.

Cons

Will not provide a living salary, had to rent a basement room with a creepy landlord who only rented to young women and definitely had cameras everywhere to perv. That's the only life you will be able to afford on this salary. Couldn't even afford an actual mattress, had to sleep on the floor most nights due to the poverty wage. Non fiction publisher with lots of books on unions and their benefits, but will actively squash union attempts and will engage in union busting techniques that their own books warn about. Management are old and think the future is still print catalogs. No efforts of digital restructuring and data is unsecured on SharePoint in random Excel documents. Management will actively brag about their lux vacations while their employees have to get food stamps.
