Pros

Chance to get some bylines

Cons

Worst management experience of my professional career. Constant yelling from CEO. Loses her cool on a daily basis and makes the entire office a miserable place. Managment constantly pulling various employees into their offices to yell at them or suspend them without pay. Management often changes priorities and direction, then gaslights you — trying to make you think you're the crazy one. They will have you writing before your shift and after your shift, no regards for personal time. Bare bones staff to cover only clickbait, not real news stories. Avoid this place at all costs. Better off working at a minimum wage job until something better comes along.

Pros

I learned a lot of invaluable skills from my peers and my cohorts. While there I accomplished several amazing feats helping grow the company under very challenging stipulations, for this I will always be grateful. The other members of the team were good smart with good intentions and great people to work with.

Cons

The top management has no clear vision of what they want to business to be beyond a money-maker. After that, the mission is splintered which makes for many inefficiencies. That could potentially be over looked or worked around, however, the top brass is unbearable. They do not understand work/life balance and I would get called at 5am demanding work to be done, arbitrary comments on my appearance would often be up for discussion, and I was often pushed to work 52 hour weeks with no extra compensation, kudos, or opportunity for future upwards mobility. The worst offense is that the founder will do her best to shut down your future career opportunities if she feels like it. BEWARE.

Pros

The owner, Sharon, provides free oxygen.

Cons

The founder of this start-up is a pathological narcissist, a kind of poor woman's Donald Trump. I'll just say she's a very bad manager of other humans.
