Pros
If you're just starting out as a journalist, you will learn A LOT working for this company because you will be forced to do a dozen different jobs.
Cons
So many cons... Leadership is largely incompetent and ineffective. They've got a "let's throw everything at the wall and see what sticks" attitude toward looking for new digital platforms and what will be sustainable, profitable and effective moving forward instead of coming up with a sound game plan. Not to mention you'll probably be working about 60 hours a week just to keep your head above water (and then get yelled at if you claim more than 40 hours each week on your time sheet) for very lousy pay. No one's seen a raise in years from what I've heard from the vets. I don't make enough to move out of my parents' house with my student debt, and I'm now three years out of college. Plus they keep cutting staff and expect the people left to put out the same amount of print and digital product. The problem is they have no clue what they're doing and can't make their digital platforms profitable, so they're still dependent on "legacy" revenue (i.e. print), but as that slowly decreases the company slowly dies, so they squeeze more profit out by cutting staff and resources and demanding the same output. I honestly think they're just seeing how much money they can make off it before it finally crashes and burns at this point. Bottom line: stay away. It's a horrible environment to work in and I honestly don't see this company surviving another five or 10 years...
