      Pros

      The people make this place, such a talented + thoughtful group of people to work with. Great opportunities to advance your career if you want it.

      Cons

      Diversity in upper management/C-Suite and practicing what we preach is an issue with the company. It appears they are working on it, but some actions fell pretty short (e.g. acknowledging Juneteenth as a holiday in 2020 when it was convenient, but failing to uphold this the following year was very disappointing). The pay also falls below competitive rates for engineering teams.

      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.
