Pros

- Direct managers and coworkers were amazing and cared about the team - Unlimited PTO

Cons

- Zillah is the worst CEO you could ask for and that's saying a lot - Terrible mismanagement from executives - Editorial not given the resources it needs to grow and thrive - Grossly low pay that should be criminal - No hope for any significant raises (even after you get a promotion!) - Constantly buys companies when they apparently can't afford to take care of their employees already - I've seen people break down crying in meetings with executives about this: they don't care - Does not care about United States employees or remote work at all - This executive team treats its employees like disposable garbage

Pros

- Everyone is super engaged with their work - Teams meet and share their progress regularly - Remote work that respects your timezone

Cons

- Unbearable amounts of micromanagement - Questionable journalistic ethics, e.g. "reviewing" products that have merely been unboxed and photographed, as well as excessive AI authorship - Extremely misleading work expectations — was told in interviews that I would be working on one story per day, resigned when I was expected to handle more than 15 in a week - Very reluctant to grant PTO or sick days — work "missed" while off is expected to be made up for twofold, and I was told at one point while sick with the stomach flu to "get over it" and "just work on 'easy' stuff today"
