Pros
Great reputation, exceptional reporting and high journalistic integrity. These are important qualities during a time when most media is becoming the bad guy.
Cons
Whereas most companies strive for diversity and value hard work and talent, Crain is sliding the opposite direction. It's a man's world. Hard work and talent not required. Additionally, year-end bonus and retirement programs are ending at the end of this year. Aetna insurance is mediocre and the company does not help by contributing to your HSA. Bare minimum maternity leave, meaning FMLA minimum. The direction of the business has taken multiple missteps since being run by the next generation. Bad decisions and bad leadership are resulting in closing of brands, cutting of benefits, and major layoffs. It's certainly not easy to be successful in publishing in 2016, however it's not a difficult concept that you must adapt with your employees and readers not the other way around.
