Pros

Folks who come to work there often stick and stay for a long time because, in my experience, the company is open to finding ways for smart people to contribute. Of course this varies department by department, but on the whole, the NYT is committed to quality and the overall success of its employees.

Cons

It can be tough to stand out in a crowd of standouts. So it's critical and healthy for folks to use a steel-sharpens-steel mentality to survive and thrive there.
