Pros
The product and concept is so exciting that if you believe in local content you will be passionate about the product. The local editors are some of the hardest working people in the news industry providing current content that makes a difference in the community.
Cons
The sales side consistently throws darts and the sales processes. Each month there is a different strategy; "it worked here so everybody run and do it like this". It isn't a credible strategy as most of these great ideas are generated by people who leave the company. The turnover is way too high as sales people aren't sure what the vision or strategy is each month and the compensation plan changes too often to create consistent and long term growth on the sales side.
