Pros

* Work life balance * Compensation is on par for industry and location * Opportunities for professional development

Cons

* Boys club amongst leadership * Poorly trained management * Inconsistent company policies, * Invisible HR. * Lots of talk but, no action. * Microaggressions abound, not a great work environment for people that don't LOOK like leadership in place.

Pros

• Work life balance. • Compensation is high for industry and location.

Cons

• Salaries, promotions, raises and bonuses seemed arbitrary. Little transparency and inconsistent application of “policies” in these areas. (I.e. policies were used as reason to deny some employees promotions/raises, while other employees were not subject to these polices.) • Lack of commitment to diversity and inclusion (especially at the top). • Senior leadership exhibits little vision, follow- through, transparency or EQ. • The company recently laid off the entire editorial department and has been restructuring, leading many others to leave. • Some departments and individuals can be possessive of projects, as their top priority is furthering their own career or status in the company. • Those at the top tend to ignore or push out employees who point out areas needing improvement, instead of addressing concerns.

Pros

The people who execute the work are the magic makers and want the company to succeed. They are smart, energetic and beyond knowledgable about the podcast space. If you are a white man who will never challenge authority, you'll thrive.

Cons

Upper management does not communicate the actual policies or direction of the company - seems extremely unorganized. They could care less at how many people have left because they do not value their people. The tech would be the saving grace if they actually hired resources to continue the growth. Institutional knowledge is basically gone due to massive departures. Only people left, are people who've been there about a year (besides upper management who refuse to see that their presence is a hinderance to development and success).
