Pros

Talented people all around, relaxed dress and conduct codes, relatively nice office space with a beautiful view

Cons

Huge disconnect between management and basically everyone else. I routinely worked nights and weekends while managers walked out at 5pm on the dot beaming, "Have a nice weekend!" as they went. This would have been way less galling had they made better financial decisions. Remember Ball Hype? Of course not. So why did Future pay a million dollars for it? Just one example out of many options.

Pros

I finally came to my senses and left the company. You don't know how bad it really is until you're gone.

Cons

Sheer lack of direction. Lack of business. Titles close monthly. No joke. Print is dying and Future was too slow to get it. No digital business. Layoffs happening. I'd point out there is ZERO marketing done for future. Nobody knows who the company is nor any of their 'titles'. But the reality is, there's nothing to market.
