Washington Post – “Proud to be a Postie, despite it all”

Pros

-- Theoretically, a 37.5-hour workweek (7.5 hours/day) -- if your manager will abide by this.
-- The prestige factor of working at The Washington Post.
-- Four weeks' paid vacation if you've been with the company 5+ years.
-- Reasonable pay in most cases, thanks to the presence of a Guild whose clout is nevertheless waning with every passing year.

Cons

-- An alarming number of newsroom "managers" have no business whatsoever managing people or processes. They landed where they were by being good at their specific craft, but their personalities are so caustic that nobody wants to even approach them, let alone learn from them. (In fairness, it should be said there are also some first-rate managers. If you work for one, consider yourself lucky.)
-- Newsroom production-side folks (copy editors, designers, web producers, etc.) are largely treated like garbage by upper management, receiving very few allotted merit raises.
-- The recently instituted content-management system was a GIANT step backward.

Advice to Senior Management

Make sure your middle managers are treating each of their employees fairly and equitably. Institute a reverse-review system in which every employee can rate their manager.
