Pros

Unlimited time off (If you've cleared the deck to use it) Well known brands (PC Gamer, TechRadar, etc) Talented and motivated people You can work on subjects that you care about

Cons

You'll be woefully underpaid for what you do Ever changing work loads (goalposts constantly moved) Emphasis on clicks and rankings over quality of content Using time off is a rarity due to heavy work loads Few chances (if any) to move up the ladder The work can be very repetitive You won't be very well valued or listened to Pay rises are uncommon and very minor Every decision comes down from the CEO It's always quantity over quality
