Positive Management Team - Data Processing Technician The Seattle Times Employee Review

Really good company full of people who care. This is a place where people celebrate decades of work -- largely, I suspect, because of how kind and helpful everyone is. Honestly, there are more than a handful of people who I know have been here for over 30 years. There's a reason people stay and it's obvious.

Antiquated decision making, slow to change, and not always very considerate of new ideas. Leaders can sometimes take awhile to come around, and the technology here is so bad. Our hybrid meetings are a joke - the helpdesk team doesn't care about their work and our work computers are absolutely terrible.

There is a lot you can learn working for a newspaper / news website that also sells digital marketing to advertisers. Many co-workers are kind and thoughtful people.

Employees lack the tools and resources to do the job they have been asked to do. There is a culture of fear and top-down direction. Finance team sends punitive emails and copies several layers of managers instead of having more direct conversations. HR seems to be more interested in covering the company's butt than encouraging inclusion and continuous improvement.
