      Pros

      -Working with interesting books/authors -Coworkers are passionate and invested in the company's values -2 weeks vacation on-hire, 4-month maternity leave, good medical benefits

      Cons

      -I find myself working until 1-2 am 2-3 times a week to complete all of my assignments -Manager constantly cancels/delays our weekly meetings, making it difficult to touch base or ask questions regarding any campaigns (This is just my personal experience and not reflective of all the management at PRH!) -Incredibly low pay compared to the workload given -Little diversity at the entry level, little to no diversity for the higher-level positions
