      Pros

      Some of the people are fun & great to work with.

      Cons

      A lot of people are lazy, and don't know the basics of production. No one gets bonuses or raises for years which makes many feel defeated throughout the company. HR doesn't understand production & takes forever to provide medical insurance info although you pay for coverage you're never given the cards or info to go to the doctor.

      Editorial Is Dying

      Pros

      Lower level employees are extremely fun and talented. The culture can be a blast.

      Cons

      Editorial is being so mismanaged you'd think the intention is to kill it. Directives are often unclear, inconsistent, and misguided. The goal isn't to be innovative, it's to chase whatever trend may lead to traffic in the short term, creating such an unwinnable environment that talent has been leaving in waves for the past year—the latest prompted by video being added to our plates without easing the burden for text. With another exodus upon us, and management's history of being slow to replace staffers (if they even bother this time), the stress is only going to increase. Complex is a really great farm team for employees to go flourish elsewhere.
