      Pros

      Definitely a good balance of work and life. Everyone is friendly and there is definitely a strong sense of community within the Post. The engineering side has been growing pretty rapidly, so a lot of room for growth both as an employee and the company itself. I interned in their new office on K street near McPherson Square, and it is a beautiful building, and the Post has their own Penthouse for employees and that was always nice.

      Cons

      Don't have much to say here, as I only interned for a couple months. The team that I worked on was rather small, working on a smaller web project. I wasn't able to work alongside other interns, which I felt was an obstacle, so I advise that the Post have a stronger program designed for their interns.

      Pros

      Supporting journalism is the one good thing.

      Cons

      The culture needs improvement, with a strict in-office policy that may not work well for everyone. There also seems to be ongoing challenges with employee retention, which can impact team morale, consistency, and long-term stability. The tech guild and unions made me feel really uncomfortable with coworkers protesting outside the office.
