Pros

Great benefits, an open and honest executive team, and the people are the best in the business. There's flexibility around working styles and lots of perks offered to keep morale up, like snacks, drinks on tap, social events and unlimited vacation. The executives are visible and offer and open door policy, so if you have a concern you can talk directly to them without booking an appointment. Zillah is a goddamn inspiration.

Cons

Lack of turnover in editorial jobs can make it hard to progress. In content creation people stick around for years, so can be hard to break through into management roles even if you're succeeding.

Thank you for your review of Future and for sharing your experiences. We’re delighted to see how much you enjoy working here. We care deeply about continuous professional development, and want our people to feel like they have opportunities to grow and learn new skills. We have had a number of open editorial roles in the last few months on website brands such as GamesRadar and CyclingNews, and our magazines PC Gamer and MacFormat. We share a bi-weekly communications promoting these vacancies, which you should see in your inbox. We also encourage you to share any development ambitions with your Manager during 121s in the hope we can offer any coaching and exposure to open future opportunities to you. As always, please let the P&C team know if you have any further queries on this.

Pros

A great company to work for - generous and rewarding. There is a sense of openness, clarity and involvement within the business. The focus on how the business can continue to succeed is not only reassuring but also hugely motivational.

Cons

There were only a few minor cons that the company has now implemented fixes for.
