      Future has been a brilliant place to work, now needs to emerge reinvigorated from large restructure / redundancy plan

      Pros

      It's always been like a huge (albeit now smaller) family. There's always been a strong culture of togetherness and socialising among 'shop floor' employees. New board must ensure that new reality of downsized company maintains that. Bath is a great city to be part of.

      Cons

      Like all media companies with a strong reliance on print, it's tough to keep revenues up in a declining market. Attempts to find a profitable alternative have foundered so far hence sales of some well-loved titles. There is new senior management in place which is yet to prove it has the answer, although one could apply that to most media companies in this digital world.

      Is there a future at Future U.S.?

      Pros

      The benefits were great as far as the full health coverage, 10 sick days, accruing vacation days, and the week off between Christmas and New Year's. The culture is casual yet professional when need be. And no clicks like you might experience at other companies. Everyone is pretty nice and welcoming in the U.S. office. It's also a great "starter" company if you just got out of college and need to get your feet wet in the working world.

      Cons

      Since magazines are being phased out more and more from their business model and have moved a significant number of jobs over to the UK, one has to wonder if there's a future for the U.S. office? From my experience it appeared they're slowly whittling down the U.S. division to eventually transition all their operations to the UK. I mean, experiencing twenty or so different rounds of lay-offs isn't a good sign, is it?
