Pros

SHE Media encourages growth and creates leadership opportunities across all levels. Senior Management works very collaboratively and supports one another towards a common goal. Also, as a women's media company, many of the tent poles have a positive impact on the word, which makes the work more meaningful.

Cons

It is a fast-paced environment where one has to be able to pivot and keep up with demanding media landscape. This type of environment is not for everybody.

Pros

Management- especially the CEO- is very focused on building your career. I was many ugh level meetings that taught me valuable skills. When I told CEO I was leaving, she was disappointed but the counseled me on how to succeed in my new role and couldn’t help herself from being excited for me because it was a step up and a new experience.

Cons

Intense and stressful sometimes trying to keep up in media while rates are dropping and competition is high. Benefits are not great - not enough vacation days to balance the intensity of the work, and new owners don’t allow for the flexibility we all valued.

Pros

I come to work every day for 3 reasons: 1) I get to work on cool, inspiring brands, 2) I am surrounded by people who are smart, fun, and hardworking, and 3) I’m able to make an impact internally and within our industry as a media company that does good. Since we were acquired by PMC, we now have new opportunities to collaborate with well-known sister brands, we have a nice new office, and we have a cafe with free snacks and the occasional celeb sighting. It's really a great place to be for anyone motivated by entrepreneurial, pro-female environments.

Cons

The pace is not for everyone -- we are all-in, all the time. This requires everyone to be both strategic & tactical, which is rewarding, but sometimes hard to balance. And because both our business and the digital media industry is ever-changing, we are constantly evolving. This creates amazing opportunities (especially for those who step up/lean in), but it can also make some people feel like they are left behind (especially outside of the NY office), if they aren’t as engaged.
