The Washington Post Response
8y
Thanks for taking the time to write a review. The Washington Post brand is strong and one that instills trust, innovation, and collaboration. We're so glad you found that here and enjoy the many Post benefits and perks. Regarding the areas we can improve, thanks for your honesty. We take feedback seriously and have processes in place that encourage it: 1) Leadership training- we train managers to ask for feedback from their teams regularly, 2) Open door policy- our culture is not hierarchical and leaders at all levels have an open door policy, and 3) Pulse Survey- every year we ask employees for feedback on all areas of the #washpostlife, including leadership. However, we are always looking to improve these processes. We'd love to hear your specific feedback. Feel free to email us at life@washpost.com. Thanks for being part of the Post team!

Pros

Supporting journalism is the one good thing.

Cons

The culture needs improvement, with a strict in-office policy that may not work well for everyone. There also seems to be ongoing challenges with employee retention, which can impact team morale, consistency, and long-term stability. The tech guild and unions made me feel really uncomfortable with coworkers protesting outside the office.
