Pros

Great products, extremely intelligent people (talking about the mothership in NY), pretty good salary for the French market, prestige brand.

Cons

Lots of fear based motivation, politics, and extreme levels of workplace toxicity. "Special" (for lack of a more acceptable word) local management. The Paris office would not be open if it wasn't so prohibitively expensive to close. Don't expect a long career here, use the opportunity as a springboard.

Pros

Challenging and rewarding work. You'll work in an environment that publishes the news everyday, if you are excited about helping people learn more about the world, you'll love it here. Good benefits, hybrid work, and really smart coworkers.

Cons

Does not pay like big tech but as an IC you'll be part of union with job protections
