Pros
At this point, none. Especially if you are in sales.
Cons
-No one in management is anywhere near qualified to work at a newspaper, much less make it thrive. -Management bleeds money from the paper due to their arrogance, poor business/hiring decisions, and mishandling of the few good employees that remain. -Publisher is rarely in office. -Every department is understaffed and expected to do the work of several people. -Content is the least important aspect of the paper, unless it is marketing or advertising content. -Hiring all management who live in Illinois makes for a lot of people with little vested interest in Milwaukee or a Milwaukee newspaper. They have absolutely no grip on what made this newspaper the important paper it was a couple of years ago, nor do they appear to care to know. -Go through "publishers" like tissue paper. -Every change they make in the paper's former almost perfect infrastructure caused/causes massive loss of revenue and much more work for the few employees that remain. -Look through the paper on any day and you'll find multiple examples of typos, incorrect information, information repeated, and a huge lack of content and confusion in the construction bidding section, Job Track. -Again, management is the entire problem here, like a bunch of adult children are running the place. -All type setting and billing is done by another company in Kansas and they are about a competent as a bag of rocks. The large amount of money they have cost Daily Reporter due to their incompetence over the years is embarrassing. -How much money was wasted on sports tickets and the golf outing because those in charge do not understand the paper's market or readership, or how much the lost content was important to existing readers and new readers? Your readers are much smarter than you give them credit for.
