Pros

Very much a "we are family" kind of feel between colleagues. Most people across departments are willing to help and contribute to the success of others. Benefits are good and autonomy is good & bad...good employees are free to do a great job & experiment with ideas but bad employees never seem to be dealt with...overall though a good working atmosphere.

Cons

Upper Management = nothing but the "posse." Not creative, nor very bright it seems. This trickles down several levels. Promotion of friends is rampant, no matter the qualifications, and job performance isn't really judged it seems.

Pros

Good benefits, a lot of good people. Editorial and Marketing are top notch.

Cons

Challenging pace of change. Many areas have no clear career paths. Raises are very low despite good performance.
