Pros

decent pay with remote work available

Cons

The absurdly unqualified managers in this department tasked with managing employees whose jobs they couldn't come close to doing themselves. CEOs who knowingly cause burnout and then punish employees for predictably crumbling under impossible workloads with no support. Actually competent employees who are overlooked in favor of mediocre ones who lack the knowledge and courage to risk injuring the new Executive Editor's fragile ego. This place is highly toxic and cult like. RUN!

Pros

Good benefits, fast paced work environment, great place to learn transferable workplace skills

Cons

Managers like to use fear tactics to scare employees, you never feel a sense of job security here. You will be intensely micro-managed and mistakes don't get treated like learning moments as you are expected to perform with perfection. Every 1 to 2 years upper management will mass purge a handful of employees that they feel don't fit in their growth model (I saw this happen 3 times while working here), despite experience or time with the company. I've seen 10 year veterans get canned without notice or warning for simply not fitting into the CEO's vision. Pay is also way under market value because it's an Asheville based company and folks here don't get paid their worth. It's easy to feel like an outsider here as all of upper management is pretty tight, it's their way or the highway and fresh ideas are not encouraged. If you work here, get some good skills and get out before you're a victim of a mass purge.
