Vantaggi
-Desire for innovation - Honest efforts to move into digital environment -Belmont office has great views -Willing to hear new ideas -Gave me an opportunity to develop relationships with some interesting people with very good ideas
Svantaggi
-Many of the best and brightest are gone (to be expected) and have been (in most cases, not all) replaced with lesser minds (troubling) -Not the best pay -Flexibility in work/life has gone down considerably (when I started we could work from home 2 days a week but then it went down to 1 in Q3 2012 and I believe now it is completely gone for most teams) -Management is slow to accept change, they talk a big game regarding desire for innovation but are very gun-shy on any real initiates (somewhat understandable after the MindTap disaster) -Rapid acquisitions in mid-2000s was handled poorly and created a disparate and often political corporate environment in which the old guard of print and the new school tech evangelists were often at odds (seems like print people often won these battles because of their experience in these sorts of altercations, after all, they've been fighting the battle to resist change for a long time so as to keep their own skin intact.)
