Pros

close to home, good benefits

Cons

Managers are prejudiced and favortism is the norm. They are on their own with no checks and balances from their bosses in LA. They are so unprofessional and have no management background - training or school - and it shows.

Pros

Good focus on long-form writing and journalism; lots of lovely people worked here and there was a nice community outside of the office; felt like a legit civic institution that people in L.A. care about.

Cons

Uneven management with unclear long-term priorities and conflicting top-down mandates. Not very willing to collaborate with the union.
