America's Test Kitchen reviews

Leadership (CEO) is fickle , unpredictable and at times downright hostile and even vengeful. Lots of dramatic firings that create a toxic and fearful work environment. I was given advice to "tell him what he wants to hear" and then "do the opposite and hopefully he won't notice." Eek.

Editorial staff is treated poorly and paid even worse. Other departments noticeably have it better and are actually paid market rate salaries for Greater Boston. Health insurance is very expensive and not very good, and other benefits are so-so. No transit pass or gym reimbursement. Some departments get to work remotely, others don't. The company truly doesn't believe in management training, so there are a lot of really, really poor managers that don't seem to care about the happiness and health of their employees. Seems like everything is about making the owners and C-level rich.
