Vantaggi
If what you need is reliable money, you want Courier. It's pay is well above what you would probably expect, benefits are generous too.
Svantaggi
Where to begin? Company culture is about performative unity and a fervent belief in a "mission" that at times feels like a means to excuse a culture that inspires horrible burn out. Consistently, workers are given too much to accomplish in too little time with few to no resources. It takes typical startup culture and cranks all the flaws to 11. There's endless bureaucracy within their operations that require journalists to preform every step of the process from multimedia work to being social media personalities. But each step of the process is overseen by a national team disinterested in providing feedback, but highly interested in saying reporters don't do enough. As I've been promoted in editorial I've felt bad for the bottom of the totem pole. Courier functions like a melodramatic caricature of a media startup's greatest weaknesses held together by staff rotating like Spinal Tap drummers and empty platitudes.
