Pros

If you're good at what you do, they'll let you do it. Creative and secure managers allow members of their team to flourish, to explore new talents, to experiment.

Cons

It's a tough place. Not sure I really think that's a con, but if you're not built Ford tough, you can be crushed. As long as you know who you are, you can thrive.

Pros

Supporting journalism is the one good thing.

Cons

The culture needs improvement, with a strict in-office policy that may not work well for everyone. There also seems to be ongoing challenges with employee retention, which can impact team morale, consistency, and long-term stability. The tech guild and unions made me feel really uncomfortable with coworkers protesting outside the office.
