Business outlook
Pros
There are some talented people on staff to learn from. They are always taking risks to start new publications, which I admire.
Cons
Since they are always starting new publications, they may hire you on the contingency that the publication will succeed, which many do not. The problem is that they don't tell you this. You may think that you have a permanent job, but it is really temporary. Even if you get hired for an established magazine, this can happen, because your job will only be secure if the existing editor succeeds at starting a new magazine. Also, the owner is kind of crazy and arrogant, but this can also be a pro because she is a very entertaining character. You will have great fodder for you next novel.
