Pros
Good first job to ease into the industry because it's relatively fun and full of freebies and perks, such as being treated nicely at most events by PR folk.
Cons
Pretty toxic environment where superiors badmouth others openly for completely subjective reasons. It's pretty unbecoming and demoralizing to work under people you're supposed to respect, but can find no reason to. Ideas thrown out in editorial meetings are also stale and it feels like you're always playing catch up to bigger media players in the US.
