Pluspunten
There are some really great women working on the magazines side of Hearst digital—women who are smart, funny, and look out for each other.
Minpunten
The new President of Hearst Magazines is awful. He shows up late to meetings often and interrupts women routinely, sometimes to talk about things that are completely irrelevant. He has a habit of putting his feet up on conference room tables. And it seems like he cares little about content standards, only ever focusing on money. Beyond the toxicity coming from the top, the infrastructure at Hearst is extremely disorganized. Publications don't pay freelancers on time, leaving young employees in administrative roles to play the middleman between (rightfully) angry writers who are owed money and an accounting department that doesn't give answers. I think it's possible to have a good experience at Hearst, but only if you have minimal contact with the central administration. Also, the salaries are very low. All in all, wouldn't recommend!
