Pros

The editorial product was fantastic, dept heads are very approachable and cool, lots of opportunity (for me) to learn design and art direction from the Creative Director, to learn how a multi-dept business runs and flows from the inside, lots of network opportunities both internally and externally, beers with the staff was a regular thing every afternoon.

Cons

Needs to publish their great content into more digital and millennial social platforms to stay afloat in the future. Print is becoming antiquated, financially, but will still have a value to the long time and older demo LA Weekly readers.

Pros

Every day was different. Independent work. Go to cool places. A great place to start out when first moving to Los Angeles, Able to make lots of connections

Cons

None that I can think of. It's part-time/contract work. So you would need additional employment elsewhere.
