Pros

Some nice and talented co-workers. Competitive salary.

Cons

If you are looking for a place to grow as a journalist, then you should avoid this company. You will end up compiling numbers and putting them on a spreadsheet. The management is terrible as they keep promising things that cannot deliver. Plenty of managers lack social skills and treat their employees with no respect, this is even worse if you are a female worker.

Pros

Great teammates with high standards and low egos. Compensation isn’t competitive, so top performers often move on. The medical insurance, though, is excellent.

Cons

Management: Severely disconnected. A strict “3 days in office” rule is tracked via weekly attendance reports, yet the Head of North America works fully remote after moving away from Houston. Compensation: Senior-level pay is well below the Houston market. Repeated promises to make salaries competitive have been half-measures (think bottom 10% range). Hours: Expect meetings to be scheduled irrespective of your actual working hours.
