Pros

Some very good people work (worked here). They pay us for the moment.

Cons

In 2 to 3 years Tim Fagan has managed to take G/O Digital from over 500 employees to 30. Great job Tim! You are the most incompetent "leader" I've ever met.

Pros

They are trying to innovate but not in a competitive manner. They are about advancing corporate profits and are desperately trying to remain relevant in a dying market.

Cons

Your pay won't keep up with cost of living expenses, and their bargain basement approach to staffing to see how much people will take before leaving will leave you constantly training new people and compensating with high turnover.increased effort does not pay off here.

Pros

Good parking. Clean lobby. Improving news product.

Cons

Middle management is a huge problem. Management hires family and friends. Sales management is disrespectful and degrades employees. Several people have left because of her. Several reports to HR and nothing is done. Revolving door is due to poor treatment. Those that are left are afraid to speak up. Mainly because they have seen nothing done with previous complaints. Product is improving. Sales Management took a good staff and destroyed it, causing good employees to leave and those that are left with no motivation. You cannot thrive in an environment of deceit and instigation. Those that are left deserve better. But upper management turns a blind eye to the behavior of middle management and how they treat their employees behind closed doors. It's a true Jekyll and Hyde situation.
