Good management, good pay and benefits. All levels of employees treated respectfully.
|
Not a lot of room for advancement if you're not part of the journalism staff.

Amazing people doing amazing work
|
|
People are treated like people. There is decent work/life balance. The work you are doing is meaningful and makes an impact.
|
Organizational structure is chaotic as the company grows.

Good people, bad systems
|
|
-Great colleagues. Some of the best reporters and editors you'll find anywhere. Lots of smart, caring, thoughtful people committed to producing good work.
-Ample time. Reporters have the liberty to develop stories over the course of many weeks or months (though this can be a curse as well as a blessing)
-Ample resources generally. Access to premier research tools and databases, great in-house support for data viz and web development.
-Decent salary and benefits
|
-Dysfunctional management structure created a weird and unhealthy office culture. The newsroom seemed to have grown very quickly and there wasn't a great plan about what to do with its resources.
-I often felt unclear about exactly what my job was, but I felt like asking too many questions about such things was discouraged (ironically enough, given PP's mission). Some managers seemed more concerned about how they appeared to their superiors than they did about leading their teams or producing the best work possible. In general, CYA was the order of the day.
-Too much emphasis on big bombshell investigations could lead to perverse incentives. When your newsroom's driving mission is "accountability," every story needs to be framed in terms of a finger-pointing, who-did-what-wrong narrative. I worked on many stories where that was the right frame ... and others where it was a real stretch. But when reporters and editors work for months on a single investigation, there's a lot of internal pressure to produce flashy results, even if it turns out there's not much there there. This isn't unique to PP, but I think it's especially pronounced there because the long time horizon for projects makes reporters and editors feel desperate to score.

Wonderful place to work
|
|
If you've been looking for more time, more resources, more support, and more encouragement to pursue the most ambitious and creative journalism projects you can dream up, this is the place for you.
|
The only con for me is the pressure of living up to this kind of opportunity, and the patience to stick with a project for the amount of time required to make it truly stand out.

Be a little more open minded about the definition of "harms" that might merit investigation/accountability.

Everybody is pretty nice and collaborative.

There can be organizational chaos but usually nice behavior and good internal relationships overcome this.

Passionate and smart people
|

Universally competent and technically savvy staff, the newsroom floor suffused with important, groundbreaking work, vibrant and genuinely friendly atmosphere
|
A very chatty office - maybe not ideal for those who like quiet
Not a strong culture of taking breaks or eating lunch together

-What a privilege to be surrounded by such smart, hardworking, dedicated journalists! Excellent internship.
|
-This may have been addressed since I left--the stipend given to interns (and I appreciate that they walk the talk and pay their interns!) isn't exactly a livable wage in New York City. Especially considering that it doesn't come with benefits. I scraped by because I didn't have much for student loans and because healthcare plan requirements back then were much more lenient--I could get by with my joke of insurance I had to buy myself.
