Pros

Knowledgeable and friendly staff. Very team-oriented, from management on down. Plenty of people who can/will help you at the drop of a hat. Editors strove to maintain a work-life balance for staffers, as much as you can in the media business. There were high ethical standards and working here means a chance at meeting top Pentagon press and attending high-level events and functions.

Cons

Long hours on occasion. Lots and lots of turnover among staff. The office is not easily accessible by Metro.

Pros

Flexible work environment - hybrid

Cons

Heavy workload, way below market compensation for the amount of responsibility, very limited advancement opportunities & uneven workload distribution among teams. In my experience, leadership made repeated statements about promotion opportunities in career growth that ultimately did not materialize. I felt that expectations were set that weren’t followed through on, which made it incredibly difficult to trust leadership. Transparency and follow through on career development could be significantly improved.
