It's easy to get deceived by the behaviour of the management at first but slowly they'll reveal their true colors. If writing is your passion get ready to be bickered 1000 times while you're writing and you'll start to hate your own work and lose self confidence. The mentorship given by the department is a convenient way to establish control over your writing. They will ask you to change your writing style frequently to meet the unimaginable demands. You'll have to overwork to finish your daily quota and you'll not get paid sufficiently for that. Get ready to overwork with less pay and that too with no paid holidays. Forget your lazy Sundays and embrace a toxic work culture if you want to work here....Read More

Very positive culture, approachable management, learning opportunities, and majorly the best place if one wants to work in sports media and sees themselves working for a brand that competes with the best in the world.
Dislikes
Not a place if one seeks comfort (some can view this positively too)... because one has to always go out of comfort zone to drive quality/work.

This job represents my first full-time opportunity within the corporate environment. I started in June 2023 as an editor, and after my potential was quickly recognized, I was promoted to the Lead Editor role within just a month. I appreciate many aspects of this organization, including the work-life balance, team culture, job security and opportunities for learning and development. My time here, only 8 months so far, has been incredibly transformative thanks to the supportive people and positive organizational culture....Read More

I really love the work culture and freedom to work from the comfort of my home. Plus we get to stay up to date with the sports we love. what else can we ask for?
Dislikes
The only thing I didn't like was that we don't get off days during festivities. Nevertheless, we can apply for leaves and if there's a high priority game, we would have watched that anyway, right?

If you love sports and writing on them, the role is best for you. Work from home, and in-house promotions are a plus here.
Dislikes
Sometimes, it can be difficult to balance personal life and work, because of the work load, especially during game seasons. However, it can be taken up as an advantage by some, depending on how they grasp it.
