Pros: - Very friendly team. Managers are usually understanding and friendly. - Conducive work environment. Developers get support from other teams like Infra, services, product, etc., so that the main focus is development. - I feel proud to be working for The Times. - Compensation and bonus are as per market standards. - Management is very understanding and cares for people. - Upper management is approachable. - Good vision for The Times' products overall. - Latest technology stack and freedom to experiment/choose technologies! Hack days, maker weeks, etc., are the norm. - Developers are encouraged to enhance their skill set by company-sponsored educational courses.

Cons: The NY Times tech division should work on improving how the brand is viewed in the tech community. Sometimes, it feels that the good work of The Times is not recognized.

Pros: This is a fun place to work. It has a great work-life balance. The compensation is good.

Cons: I sometimes wish management would work more like a lead startup. I still don't know why the company is paying for Oracle licenses.

Pros: Flexible work hours, decent benefits, 6% 401k match, and a defined career ladder.

Cons: Growth opportunities can be difficult to find for senior engineers. The new tech union is causing a lot of unknowns regarding future union dues. Even though hours are reasonable, the volume of work can be tiring. The complex benefit structure leaves some individuals out of certain perks/benefits (RSU related).
