      Pros

      -Brilliant colleagues all working toward a common goal -A priority to promote from within (new jobs and openings are posted almost daily) -Pay is competitive -A mission dedicated to high-quality journalism -An exciting, fast-paced atmosphere that nurtures and encourages new ideas -Cool office, great views, in an awesome location -Five. Months. Parental. Leave.

      Cons

      -For some, the course correction in directives can be a little jarring at times. (Mental flexibility is the key to growth) -Certain positions require odd hours of work -Because of the high-profile nature of the institution, internal drama and politics can spill out into the public discourse
