Pros

Great people & decent office space

Cons

Pay is below average for most roles and the "offsets/fringe benefits," like a set schedule & health benefits, are diminishing. Little to no professional development offered and basically no opportunities to grow. HR team in CLT is not active.

Pros

Well-organized and good communication. As a contractor, I found Hearst to be a pleasure to work with.

Cons

I don't have any cons to report other than that the accounts payable is out of North Carolina and can take 60 days to receive payment.
