Pros

Lots of genuinely fun and interesting people to work with, albeit the post-Covid increase in working from home saw that aspect diminish. HR improved towards the end of my time there and has likely improved further in the four years since. Good opportunities to learn and gain experience in various different aspects of print and digital media.

Cons

Pay is poor for hours put in. Not disastrous but towards the bottom end of what you expect from a serious print publication. Diminishing focus on quality as company turned focus from its own publications to supplying content for other sites. Serious lack of focus on career development. A culture of 'give an inch, take a mile' from management. The more work you produced (under increasing stress to do so) the more the result was: 'they can handle that much work - let's give load them up with more'. If payment and/or bonuses reflected effort put in; fine. But this was not the case.
