Internal culture doesn't match External image - Anonymous employee New York Times Employee Review

Huge lack of internal transparency and trust. Company-wide decisions are made by people with irrelevant and often counterproductive expertise. Very little focus on employee experience outside of the Newsroom. Very set in ways that have been "the way" for decades - nearly impossible to make even the simplest progress in changing processes for the better (and ridiculous internal politics based on tenure and nepotism create a ton of additional obstacles). From my experience, it's not the right place for anyone who's driven by innovation, collaboration, or modern ways of working. And on a side note, email is the preferred communication method which is excruciating.
