Pros

Colleagues and teammates around the world, co-workers who are inspired to do great work. This isn't a great time to get into journalism, but if you want to make a difference, and see your work in papers and on websites across the state (or nation), there's no better place than AP.

Cons

For a communications company, its management is terrible at internal communication. The execs probably have a long-term plan but it seems the employees are the last to learn it. Every bureau is painfully understaffed but management fails to explain, even when asked directly at all-hands meetings, what its plan is to provide and distribute more resources.

Pros

It never gets tiring to see your byline in papers and on websites around the country. Outstanding opportunities to report on history, surrounded by incredibly talented and impassioned co-workers.

Cons

For a communication company, management does a laughable job of communicating its vision to employees -- probably because management lacks vision.
