Pros
Hybrid work model; good springboard to more stable career opportunities; decent benefits (though can be difficult to take days for content producers on perpetually understaffed teams).
Kontras
Zero HR, IT, accounts payable presence in US and experience company-wide churn felt in editorial, so issues take days/ time/ follow-up to get addressed. Readers find multiple recent rebrands confusing and With Intelligence lacks name recognition in the industry, requiring constant explanation. Journo jobs at several verticals are actually data aggregation pushed into a very strict (yet somehow moving target) template. Constant churn/ lack of exp in editorial leads to inconsistency around how industry coverage is even approached; bloated mid/ upper management v. small content production teams with intense demands (pvt equity). Content plans are (quoting one alum) "fascinatingly tone-deaf to the broader market," and discerning what makes a good With story is (quoting a third) "like palm reading." A team that was unionizing in NY was moved to Boston. The monetization model, which is becoming even more expensive soon, will be difficult to execute well in the states given the competition and circumstances described above. Company is growing very quickly without clear roadmap and lacks experience to right the ship.
