Pluspunten
Though it's a total mess behind the curtains, the paper is a respected institution in D.C. that puts out quality product thanks to the hard work of its small editorial and advertising staff, some of whom are talented beyond what the company deserves.
Minpunten
- Wretched financial state, including mountains of debt.
- Shady, unethical business practices that include regular violations of labor laws and lies/aversion to avoid the consequences of that.
- No respect for the financial realities or well-being of employees and contractors, i.e. laughably low pay, frequently late or missing paychecks, abruptly discontinued health insurance.
BOTTOM LINE: The company is not in a state to be hiring people, so if you're in that position proceed with extreme caution and wariness. For freelancers and contractors, don't do any work for them you're not willing to complete for free.
