Well recognized company with great benefits
Account Executive - Education (Former Employee), Fort Lauderdale, FL –
Pros: excellent benefits
Cons: monetary compensation
There is definitely a set culture in various departments. Although working out of the box is always encouraged but it's never approved unless it meets the culture of management. Benefits are great but compensation not competitive. Difficult to advance. Not much promoting from within although qualified individuals exist.

Challenging and exciting place to work.
Assistant Manager, Int'l Human Resources (Former Employee), Princeton, NJ –
Pros: professional environment, actively involved the world's current events
Cons: job insecurity
Much of the challenge of this workplace comes from the economic stress placed on the media industry at this time in history. Working with international clients was fascinating.

As Advertising Sales Coordinator in an exciting field as publishing, was able to acquire a high respect for all the "behind the scenes" work.
Advertising Sales Coordinator (Former Employee), Los Angeles, CA –
During my 18 years of employment at Dow Jones & Co./The Wall Street Journal, I enjoyed learning every aspect of the publishing trade. From the concept of ad creation to seeing the final product in print. I enjoyed working with a great team both internal as well as external and come together to assure great customer service.

Would not recommend
DIrector, Network Eng. (Former Employee), Princeton, NJ –
MY experience with Dow Jones was in the IT area. I found the management to be in flux with no real direction. They told staff that they wanted to make changes but never really stopped in flight projects to follow the direction. found senior management to be not trustworthy and always relying on other sources who had been there for many years to provid – more...  "inside" information – less

Good place to learn how to write concisely
Intern (Former Employee), Washington, D.C. –
Pros: great critical feedback, strong role models in the work place
Cons: not enough time in the day, as with most journalism jobs
This is a learn-by-example workplace. I was taught by watching and learning, not by being coddled and instructed. Its dog-eat-dog in journalism, and working at Dow Jones helped me see that very clearly.
