Pros

Central London office and some nice facilities

Cons

1. Unsociable employees 2. Lack of collaboration across teams 3. Inconsistent and unfair expectations of attendance of working in the office for various members of staff (less senior, the more unfair) 4. Poor leadership from the top down 5. Disgruntled middle management 6. Unfair content expectations 7. The worst egos seem to succeed here 8. No training (whatsoever) 9. No community/teamwork feel 10. You will be pigeonholed 11. Toxic environment 12. Lack of empathy for any personal issues going on at that time in your life 13. Has very little care for your personal well being, you are just a tiny little screw in a well oiled evil machine 14. You will be shown no appreciation for any hard work or any above and beyond behaviour at this company - the expectations are insanely unrealistic and you are a piece of dirt to them, especially if you work in editorial 15. The editorial team has no say in the greater good of the company 16. You are not listened to

Pros

Supportive team, collaboration within the team

Cons

You never get a raise or promotion, not even annual inflation adjustment. Higher management doesn’t care about you or any other employees. They are only concern about generating more revenue without even appreciating or giving any perks to their employees.
