Pros

Institutional influence; caliber of work; whip-smart people; very family-like atmosphere at the section level; ability to learn from the best in the industry.

Cons

Everyone assumes this is the most important thing in your life -- save family crisis, you are expected to work whenever, wherever (vacation? ha!).

Pros

Challenging and rewarding work. You'll work in an environment that publishes the news everyday, if you are excited about helping people learn more about the world, you'll love it here. Good benefits, hybrid work, and really smart coworkers.

Cons

Does not pay like big tech but as an IC you'll be part of union with job protections
