Pros

You're able to jump right into the work and gain exposure to different areas of publishing. It's particularly great for young people who are just getting started in publishing (like me). You get exposure to high level projects and aspects of the business that you don't get to experience at bigger companies.The company has a start up environment with open communication but really meant for individuals who can tackle projects head on, open-minded and willing to learn.

Cons

Need to invest more into the development of junior level employees and provide clear paths to promotions for those who want to stay on for awhile
