Pros
BuzzFeed has a great culture and offers an awesome work-life balance and competitive pay. The people at the company are generally very nice.
Cons
I never felt stable or secure at this company. I survived a few rounds of layoffs and left feeling like the overall picture for digital media isn't looking good so I expect them to happen again. Unfortunately, I don't think there's much the company can do to right the ship despite a lot of smart people working there. For me, I always felt like at any moment I could get laid off despite being a high-performer.
