Pros
There are some truly wonderful people working in the creative positions.
Cons
Courier wants to "build trust," but it's painfully obvious that it's just propaganda for the Democratic party (or special interest groups with deep pockets)--not real journalism. The strategy changes ever week. Sometimes radically. Goals are absurdly unrealistic. And merit increases are tied to these goals. Quantity and numbers are more important than quality and experience. Courier uses AI to create content. Editorial direction is driven by special interest groups and investors. Basically, what you're reading is either paid for or designed to lure you into the paid-for content. In other words, one-dimensional and boring. The CEO claims to be pro-worker, but when the employees tried to unionize, she laid off 10% of the staff. Courier refuses to cover the genocide in Gaza, even when protests at state universities make it local news. Executive leadership makes demoralizing decisions, like promising bonuses, then retracting the bonus in an email just days before Christmas and sending out cookie-decorating kits instead. An example of a Courier holiday "party" is an awkward 5-minute trivia game during a meeting. But as a remote company, it's hard to have a holiday party, so you make it up with the holiday gift right? Nope. Courier gifts cheap company swag.
