"I've been on contract at the Washington Post for 9 months. It has been a great experience and my team is very supportive and encourages growth. It does feel like the company culture is very focused on growth though so it can feel very fast paced without much room for breathing, but some may really enjoy that so I wouldn't call it a negative."

"Working a the Washington Post has been quite the roller coaster ride. It has given me some golden opportunities, and glamorous days. But in the end, company wise (internally) it has failed in recognizing key players in exchange for new blood. It has placed its need before seniority need inside the newsroom. The Washington Post will forever be a place where great news is produced both visually and written."

"The Washington Post is a good company with a great heart. They truly were committed to providing opportunities for those that delivered results. Unfortunately, they were a bit complacent as the industry began changing drastically around them, which has put them in a difficult position now. I truly hope that they are successful in developing a revenue model that will support their exceptional journalism."
