Pros

-being remote was the sole benefit of working here

Cons

do not believe a word of these fake reviews: -Everything about this company is smoke and mirrors. They present an image of success during the interview process, only to pull a complete bait and switch once you’re hired. -Toxic work environment (and the creepy CEO has a history of being inappropriate: [[google it] -It's a failing media company led by a completely incompetent trio of so-called “leaders.” -Layoffs happen every few months due to cycles of ineffective strategies. They'll have a slew of hires, only to be forced to have a round of layoffs shortly thereafter. -The CEO and CFO are stuck living off past successes from a decade ago and have no grasp of today’s market or the shifting dynamics of business goals and strategies. -The definition of "do more with less". They are running on a skeleton crew with no resources and expect to be a top-earning, top-ranking media company. -The sole HR employee is robotic and insincere. -It is a house of cards in every way. RUN from this company....

Pros

-Flexible PTO -Work from home

Cons

Digital Trends Media Group (or Digital Trends, if you prefer) is a cesspool of terrible leadership, fragile egos, poor revenue, and no direction. The CEO shifts direction every few months because he is just a terrible businessperson. Sales can’t make the company any money. All the websites DTMG owns rely on former glory, but traffic on all of them is down at LEAST 80% in the past few years. You will have no tools you need, freelancers won’t get paid for the work they do, you will be lied to repeatedly, and there’s a ton of turnover at this small, failing publisher. DTMG is a complete joke. Finding a job is hard, but there’s no such thing as a career at DTMG. If you’re offered a job here that you have to take because you have bills to pay, get out as fast as you can. DTMG leadership has tons of skeletons in the closet. They’ll tell you that’s not who they are. They’re lying. This company and its people are toxic and petty. Every positive review this company has is solicited; none of them are genuine. I know because the former COO asked everyone to give a positive review here to boost the company's ranking. AVOID DTMG.
