Pros

- access to pre-pub books - great community of entry level employees

Cons

- ceo micromanages all of the departments and makes decisions without consultation - expected to work long hours and have email access 24/7 - not paid a living wage - impossible to be promoted within your current role - jobs aren’t filled when people leave, they’re just given to current employees who already have full time workloads

Pros

Great benefits, good leadership within imprints, incredible flexibility with office vs. hybrid.

Cons

Communication between higher ups rarely makes its way down and the goals of a team are often not said explicitly, making one feel unsure of what's valued most.
