      Pros

      Fun job, smart and talented colleagues, good pay, flexible working conditions so long as you get your work done. Opportunities to make a difference in the community with our coverage.

      Cons

      Much diminished by budget cuts and bleak outlook for newspaper industry. Tribune parent company is making moves that are fueling anxiety about the paper's future. Overall quality of stories and editing has declined over time. Emphasis on metric-driven productivity compels some to shovel out stories to meet quotas rather than look for the best stories told in the best way. No good system to mentor and develop younger talent.

      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.
