Pros

Some of the people are nice to work with, it depends on your department and your manager. The company is working toward a more open-floorplan workspace which should change things up a bit. Lenient with break/lunch times, if you're salaried you get to work from home one day a week but if you're hourly they don't trust you enough to let you do that, free lunch on Fridays which is nice of them but it sucks and absolutely no allergy friendly options. Great benefits plan.

Cons

Zero training/orientation, the only thing they cover in the quick and vague "new hire orientation" is the benefits, not even how to submit your time card. Pay is, as many other people here have stated, awful. Absolutely no room for negotiation, standard 3% merit increase each year to account for inflation rates... if you earn it. People are not paid fairly across the board. Inconsistent in every single sense of the word. They say there are standards like you have to reach a certain level to get this privilege or that benefit so you can't have it, but then you'll see countless people around you who are at your same level or under you and have the privileges and benefits you can't have because "its a company wide policy." No room to grow within the company, no career advancement opportunities, and not paid a living wage for the expensive area.

It's a friendly, laid-back atmosphere, with progressive values. Remote work.

Publishing is a struggling industry, and there's increasing pressure on hitting numbers.
