Pros
The only positive about this place are the other writers, who are all absolutely lovely. There is an unspoken agreement that everyone knows how terrible a place it is to work and so it sparks a feeling of camaraderie, similar to how I imagine POWs felt in WW2.
Cons
Everything else. -Unrealistic expectations -Arrogant senior management who bully and harass staff (sometimes driven to tears) -Writers leaving in droves and quickly getting replaced through quarterly 'intakes' of graduates (who unfortunately ignore the warning signs for the sake of a job but quickly regret their decision) -Constant churn means that time is always taken up by training new staff -Dull office space with company owners showing no desire to invest in trying to make it a nicer space to work -A work from home policy seemingly based on favouritism / if you gave kids. Good luck if not. -Company owner will come into the office at random to harass staff, if you complain then you will just be told to 'toughen up' and accept it as it's 'just the way he is'. This is offset by rare moments of genuine kindness but this doesn't dampen the feeling that you've somehow entered into an abusive relationship by working there.
