Looks good on a resume, at least - Multiplatform Editor The Washington Post Employee Review

Pros

solid salary; prestige of working there; rigor of the workload forced me to improve as a copy editor

Cons

Manager of my team was too overwhelmed to be able to provide substantive management/career coaching for direct reports. Pathways to advancement felt dependent on favoritism from the higher-ups. The schedule structure also made real work-life balance impossible for about half of the multiplatform editor team in my department, though FWIW, that may have improved since I left.

Pros

Hard working colleagues, at times.

Cons

I found a lot of people I worked with were just racking up sinecures they felt they had earned. Lots of laziness.
