Where do I start 😂 - No holiday days (told on first day I had only 15 days because I started in February) - Bosses don’t listen - argumentative -They lie on job descriptions - No office , HR couldn’t tie their own shoes - Everyone is depressed and hates working there - Meetings every five seconds in which people discuss anything other than work - No communication between departments - US don’t listen to the UK - Overall a waste of time and a shocking place to work at

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.
