      Pros

      Freedom to choose stories. Job encourages independence and creativity. Ability to have an impact on the lives of readers and subjects.

      Cons

      Morale has been low for quite some time. Part of it is industry uncertainty. Much of it is top editorial management with poor management skills. They routinely undervalue women. Focus on a handful of (male) favorites and deny most others the opportunity for meaningful professional development. They don't seem to realize they are responsible for quite an exodus of experienced staff.

      Pros

      The management was supportive and responsive. I never had any issues.

      Cons

      It is a far commute for those who are remote and need to work in the office.

      Pros

      Good focus on long-form writing and journalism; lots of lovely people worked here and there was a nice community outside of the office; felt like a legit civic institution that people in L.A. care about.

      Cons

      Uneven management with unclear long-term priorities and conflicting top-down mandates. Not very willing to collaborate with the union.
