Conde Nast is a great place to start your career but you need to move around to grow in your career.

Pros

You get to work on some of the most of the moment topics along with getting access to the world's best magazines. There are also a ton of perks such as sample sales, event invitations, and lots of fun free fashion stuff!

Cons

Growth is a bit slow compared to other companies. This is probably due to the fact that it is very corporate and there is a lot of structured processes. Additionally there is generally a large gap between levels making it difficult to take the next step or grow consistently within any department.

Pros

For the resume badge. The company is synonymous with aspiration and good taste. It is a creative place and is the leader in the publishing industry.

Cons

It is an empire of egos. It deserves its reputation for being a bitchy place to work.
