      Good Vacation, Little Growth

      Pros

      The pay is competitive and the PTO is generous. There are a lot of smart people at the company and the atmosphere is relaxed compared to other newsrooms.

      Cons

      There is very little room for growth--people get stuck in the same positions for many years. Management does not encourage innovation despite it being a company goal. Morale is low considering the influx of recent reorgs and layoffs.

      Not all it's cracked up to be

      Intern - hourly
      Recommend

      Pros

      There's a lot of experience to be gained by working at such a far-reaching brand. Even the dull aspects of the job are usually important.

      Cons

      This is not the glorious internship they advertise. I barely received any work to do, yet was required to be at the office 20+ hours a week. Because of this, I was made to feel like I was doing a poor job. I barely received feedback when I asked for it. Another intern in my office was always busy with important work. I felt used and wished my bosses were more honest with me.
