Pros

Excellent resume builder, amazing benefits, the people are all very similar and fun to work with. There are awesome perks such as free magazines (TONS of them, as Conde Nast publishes so many), discounts and freebies from clients, events, & a ton of cool Conde Nast schwag.

Cons

As an assistant, there is absolutely no room for growth. The company describes it as a "launching point." Unless you want to move to NYC, there is no way to move up internally. However, if you do a good job, your manager can help you get a job with a big name client (i.e. GAP, Levi's, etc.) and you can come back once you are a seasoned sales associate.

Pros

Big name, prestige of working at one of the top publishing companies in the world. Interesting work, subject matter.

Cons

Senior management very often don't know what they're doing - the company is controlled very politically by the Newhouse family and the senior management, many of whom don't know how to successfully run a media company in the modern age, as evidenced by their inability to decide on a direction for their online, new media, non-print aspects of the business.
