Pros

Tantor Media is a company that has grown by 300% in the last 5 years. It has gone from a mom and pop small business in a garage to a multi-million dollar per year business while holding onto small business values. One of the only growing fields in publishing. The management (upper and middle) takes great pride in creating a work environment that is happy, flexible and conducive to maintaining work/life balance-- while balancing an intense amount of growth. Don't listen to one unhappy reviewer. Some people get to read for a living! It's not always going to be Pulitzer prize material. Company parties, BBQs, ice cream trucks, walking groups, full benefits, flexible scheduling...this is a team atmosphere. It is still publishing and in southeastern CT. The pay reflects that, but most of us who went to school for a liberal arts degree knew what we'd be getting into

Cons

Need more parking, pay isn't the greatest ever

Pros

Salary almost doubled in my 8 years here. Received a 40,000 bonus after the company was sold, some co-workers got 150,000.

Cons

Nobody has gotten a promotion to advanced or senior level in almost 3 years. Company is testing ai to replace us. Management gets more strict every year.

Pros

-Hybrid wfh 4 days a week and in office 1 day -Read books all day -Coworkers are great

Cons

-low pay (not livable wages) -micromanagement to the extreme (I’m currently documenting every minute of my day including bathroom breaks because even though I’m meeting my monthly metrics, I’m not time tracking to their standards) -literally no one cares about you. HR is a joke and doesn’t take anything serious. I’ve been waiting for 3 weeks to hear back from them when I complained about a hostile work environment. I’m being treated like a criminal because my time tracking isn’t perfect regardless that I’ve had zero performance issues in the 6 years I’ve been here -managers are out of touch. I told them I couldn’t afford gas and they sent me resources for a financial adviser. I hate it here
