Pros

I've been an employee of Future US for a combined 10 years. When Future US came calling a few years ago I jumped at the chance to work there again. Why? In my opinion, Future US is the land of opportunity. It is a place you wear many hats. You learn a great deal in a short amount of time. As long as you are a contributor, you are given the freedom to create a "custom" role for yourself. At Future US you are not just a cog in the wheel. You see the impact of your decisions almost immediately. While it has taken Future US several years to transition the business from print to digital, the company now has forward thinking global CEOs who are steering the ship into the next decade with innovative ideas and an aim to be a major player in tech/games. Additionally, small things make a difference at Future. The people are young, innovative, motivated, energetic and kind. The benefits are fantastic. Free transportation and breakfast. Work from home. Great vacation. Fun company outings. etc. I would definitely encourage anyone wanting to round out their resume to work at Future US. It is, by far, the best place I have ever worked.

Cons

I would say the best thing about Future US is that people rarely leave. I would also say the worst thing about Future US is that people rarely leave making upward mobility difficult at times. If you are not interested in a "get your hands dirty and wear a ton of hats" role then don't bother to apply!

Pros

- Everyone is super engaged with their work - Teams meet and share their progress regularly - Remote work that respects your timezone

Cons

- Unbearable amounts of micromanagement - Questionable journalistic ethics, e.g. "reviewing" products that have merely been unboxed and photographed, as well as excessive AI authorship - Extremely misleading work expectations — was told in interviews that I would be working on one story per day, resigned when I was expected to handle more than 15 in a week - Very reluctant to grant PTO or sick days — work "missed" while off is expected to be made up for twofold, and I was told at one point while sick with the stomach flu to "get over it" and "just work on 'easy' stuff today"
