Pros

Holiday, the people around you, the attempt at being caring.

Cons

Values are only reflected on power points, anything else is basically managed by staff.

Compensation for our staff is a constant conversation at Future, and not something ever taken lightly. Negotiating your position, responsibilities, and pay is something done on a regular basis with every staff member, through tools like 121 and quarterly evaluations. A critical part of this process is built on the staff negotiating for themselves, which is made clear to everyone on a regular basis. Your accusation that we pay managers well above market average and staff well below is entirely inaccurate, but it's an understandable frustration if you believed this was the case as you were leaving. We all wish you well in your next position.

Pros

- Everyone is super engaged with their work - Teams meet and share their progress regularly - Remote work that respects your timezone

Cons

- Unbearable amounts of micromanagement - Questionable journalistic ethics, e.g. "reviewing" products that have merely been unboxed and photographed, as well as excessive AI authorship - Extremely misleading work expectations — was told in interviews that I would be working on one story per day, resigned when I was expected to handle more than 15 in a week - Very reluctant to grant PTO or sick days — work "missed" while off is expected to be made up for twofold, and I was told at one point while sick with the stomach flu to "get over it" and "just work on 'easy' stuff today"
