Pros
Free lunches, Decent healthcare benefit, Retirement matching. Not much else to rave about.
Cons
NewsBreak has some serious flaws as a company. With poor work-life balance, minimal benefits other than healthcare, waining stock options, and non-competitive wages, this place is on a serious downward spiral. This company is China based with about half of its workforce in the US. Very clearly run as a Chinese company. After laying off a sizeable chunk of its workforce (at least 25%), the company is heading a spontaneous new direction after spending 3 years growing and building a sizeable workforce. This company repeatedly hires over its best people, meaning that even if you work hard and fill in the gaps of other roles, the company will neither reward you with higher salary/bonuses/stock options nor promote you to a higher position, just hire someone else and pay them more money to do your job. I saw it numerous times in different departments. This company had no system for increasing wages over time, and annual bonuses were often 3-5 months late. The options for lunches are either greasy asian food or salads. The company is going to be full time in the office, without any of the benefits that come with that. Their security also sucks. With multiple data breaches, including, at one point, all employees personal data. Offsite events are few and far between. The culture is just all about work, management is very political and hard to break into. Would not recommend this company but if you do only for a year and then GTFO.
