Associate Editor in New York:
Pros: I like how flexible the company seems to be in offering several chances to explore different skills, teams, and chances to manage various projects. I also love all the internal programs BI uses to support employees (mentorships, career workshops, etc..).
Cons: The downside to being at a quickly growing company is that policies and the organization of teams can get nebulous and harder to navigate. Even with the org chart and all its resources, I'm finding it hard to know where I stand in the company and what exactly are my options for the near future in terms of promotion, raises, job description, etc...
Honestly, it's perfectly fine.

Rewarding and challenging while working in a generally supportive environment.
