Zakelijk vooruitzicht
Pluspunten
• Great learning experience best used as a paid internship — don't let managment know that though. • Relative freedom to write what you want • You're right near Lake Tahoe and Reno
Minpunten
• Low pay — forever • Shaky newspaper revenues that often lead to editorial layoffs • Sketchy hiring: typically this company (Swift Media) will hire directly out of college or close to it. Reporters stay on until they find out there is no financial future in the company and then they'll exit (not necessarily to larger papers). The company repeats this process about every two years, about the time it takes for a reporter to see the writing on the wall and head out.
