Pros

A few great people that you work with. They are always buying more newspapers =job security.

Cons

Hardly ever any pay increases or bonuses given out. The last 5/6 years it has been a revolving door of people working there due to the poor working conditions, workloads have doubled/tripled without any increase in pay.

Pros

It doesn't appear to be different than any other media company though we were told to expect worse because a hedge fund owns it.

Cons

It doesn't appear to be much different than any other media company: No raises, tight budgets across the board.
