      Pros

      Great visibility, prestige, and colleagues.

      Cons

      Collaboration between departments is difficult. The video department struggled to balance quality content and pursuing clicks, and failed to provide mentorship or advancement opportunities. All departments struggled with diversity, and department/company leaders could be hostile to union involvement.

      Pros

      -Most, if not all, of the coworkers are both smart and kind -Managers/editors care about people. They are usually thoughtful and supportive. -There are different career paths to explore if you want to -The pay reflects industry standard and better than most newsroom. They don't try to lowball people.

      Cons

      -Working from home is discouraged. The higher management had a back-to the office mandate plan.
