Pros

Cool brand. Good work-life balance. Pretty good for remote employees.

Cons

Like most big media companies trying to change to digital, they haven't figured out how to make money online. So they hire and fire a lot - apparently thinking a new set of managers will be better this time. Then they do mass layoffs to bring in their own teams. Survive it if you can.

Pros

Generous attendance policy, Generous PTO, company dedicated to diversity.

Cons

Pay is lower as company includes all benefits into compensation. HR is terrible, but that is always the case. Interview process is always dragged out and never transparent
