Pros

Beautiful, glossy print magazines—that are getting thinner and thinner each month. Talented, passionate, creative people. Name recognition.

Cons

Paranoid atmosphere, since they're often pushing people out to make way for younger, cheaper editors. (Especially in the digital realm, where they often hire men to run their women's sites—Vogue, Allure, W.) Desperate print people clinging to their jobs, and trying to hijack digital. Lack of digital vision from the higher ups. Cliquey culture.

Pros

Great to be in proximity to such amazing brands like Vogue, Vanity Fair and the New Yorker

Cons

Pay is absolutely criminal unless you're "bonus eligible." Another billion dollar company crying poverty. Also, absolutely zero possibility of advancement.
