Pros

Working in Canary Wharf I guess, not much else.

Cons

Hostile work environment, skeleton staff, continuous threat of cuts every year prior to the pandemic, not surprising it continued. They are hiring new staff now but don’t be fooled, they will chew you up and spit you out when you least expect it. Plus they are dodgy, were done for ad fraud in 2018. They will do it again, mark my words.

Pros

Very cool office space if you work in NYC.

Cons

Run, don't walk. Pay is bad compared to other newsrooms with the same exposure. The organization is crazy messy. Restructuring people and changing job titles laterally without consulting the affected employees. Leadership will leave your message on read. Laying people off randomly, regardless of their talent and contribution to the team, purely because of a spontaneous, busy decision (you will see them hiring for the same position again in like a month). No space for advancement -- you are stuck with the same job title if your immediate supervisor doesn't move up/leave. To sum up, you deserve better if you are concerned and reading this.
