Great Company Undone by Poor Handling of Layoffs - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) Screen Rant

Genuinely some of the smartest content people I've ever worked with. Super dedicated editors who make you want to do a better job because they care so much. Robust training and feedback system. Fun content.

Not necessarily a bad thing but some editors gave TOO much feedback. A bit more flexibility to use our best judgment for formatting/amount of links/images used would have been good.

Perhaps the only thing worthwhile about this site is the everyday writers who show up to publish content. Their passion is infectious, and their pitches are often excellent if only leadership was willing to listen.

The only advice I can give to anyone looking to work here is to run. SR is not only inhumane at the most unforgivable level to its workers, but it is comically inept. Leadership doesn't know what to do other than cannibalize itself, and directions are somehow both entirely obscured while being mandated. Truly, there are few newsrooms more dysfunctional than SR or any operated by its parent company. Avoid this publishing purgatory at all costs unless you are getting paid good money.
