Business outlook
Pros
At first, the environment was fantastic. Writers and editors were trusted and given plenty of room to experiment, do great work, and branch out into other creative areas. A truly lively, diverse department filled with hilarious, talented, and brilliant people.
Cons
Absolutely no opportunities for growth, increasingly unreasonable daily quotas, and out-of-touch upper management that put too much pressure on editorial management (and, in turn, created a culture of hostility) and didn't value the department's contributions. Also, low pay in proportion to the expectation.
