Pros

It's a good place to get your foot in the door. But don't stay too long. Set a time limit for how long you'll be there. Build up your resume and look for the next step to advance your career. There are other opportunities out there. You just have to look and be open to jobs outside the newspaper industry.

Cons

Once you're in, there's no chance of moving up at the paper. Hours are long and the demands are high. Employee morale is low.
