It takes awhile to realize why it's bad here - Editor Prime Publishing Employee Review

Thank you for your feedback. We know first jobs out of college can be a challenge for both the employer and the employee. We both realized after 6 months that there might be a better fit for you elsewhere, and we wish you the best of luck with the non-profit you selected. You do have a very nice skill set. We do wish to make a few points: - Our company does have an 8-hour workday with one hour for lunch. This is standard for 72% of professional office environments. Factories and hourly employers do more commonly offer a 30 minute lunch, although there are mixes of both. - One great way to judge the quality of our content is by the organic ranking on search engines. Our craft properties typically rank on the top of page one. Our food properties have seen our organic rank increase by over 250% in 12 months. We are proud of our content creation process, and clearly our 50+ editors, in-house video studios, test kitchens and video/photography teams have helped us meet the consumer needs very well. Of course, 6.5 million active subscribers along with 5.7 million weekly site visitors who looked at over 15 million articles last week showcase how well we connect with our consumer. - We do not have a full-time HR person. While we have grown from 1 employee to almost 75 in just 8 years, companies don’t typically hire an HR professional until you reach 100 – 125 employees. We believe our HR technology platform by a leading vendor, the training provided by our labor law firm to our leadership team and our accounting manager do a great job in filling all HR needs. - People act relatively happy since they statistically are happy. Our turnover last 12 months is 72% lower than other digital media companies. Our 5 year turnover is 67% lower than other digital media companies! Of course, our average annual salary increase last 5 years is 11.1% compared to the industry average 2.5%. Our investment in ongoing monthly staff training, our monthly and quarterly social/fun programs and our charity commitment to make the world a better place round out some excellent aspects of our company. - All of our managers and assistant managers have been promoted from within. Our emerging leaders program is designed to identify and train current staff and train them for future management opportunities. Our track record in creating these opportunities is excellent. While there is no guarantee we can continue to grow as fast as we have in the last 8 years, our joint venture with one of the world’s largest book publishing companies announced in 2016 and our other joint venture with one of Europe’s largest media company announced a few months ago should provide wonderful future opportunities. They also speak volumes as to the real perception of our company by industry peers. Leaders typically form joint ventures only with other great companies – like Prime Publishing.
