Pros
I feel that BVM has encouraged me through every step of building two magazines (one in a small city and one in a town of 15,000 residents). I've never worked with an organization before that encourages me on a daily basis, embraces me when I screw up, teaches me how to do better and wants nothing more than than to see me succeed and in turn, bring communities together. I love the values that I see exemplified everyday from the top down. I love that we can build up our colleagues and there is friendly competition, but only in a way that encourages one another. The businesses that we work with LOVE the magazines. The size of the community doesn't matter - everyone wants to read what we are providing. BVM has found what communities want and need and I am so grateful to be a part of it.
Cons
I've spent 5 minutes thinking about this and I cannot come up with anything.
