      Decent salary and prospects, but rampant cronyism

      Pros

      The brand-value on one's resume.

      Cons

      Very much beholden to vested interests in that managing editors, section chiefs etc are often in a position to abuse their power re hiring and planning.

      Still a great place if you love the news

      Pros

      Still a great place to work if you love the news--good benefits, 401K match, generous vacation.

      Cons

      Certainly going through a time of transition and I'd say the upper level management that I worked for was closed off and not effective at keeping employees informed. A lot of favoritism and management promoted solely for being in the right place at the right time.

      Pros

      Best benefits, work atmosphere keeps entails you to learn A LOT. You will learn something new everyday. The people you work with are helpful, especially within your team/dept..and the good thing is that even if things are departmentalized, you work with very department.

      Cons

      24 hour news network means you are not guaranteed holidays, but you do get over 30 days of off-days
