Pros

The people at this company are fun and very creative. Like the new publisher and his focus on local Los Angeles. Benefits are good but used to be better. Work from home for most sales reps.

Cons

Tribune company ties makes us seem we aren't performing well. Wish we can do an independent company away from Chicago. Pay for sales isn't what it used to be. Wish they would give better compensation based on revenue brought in.

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.
