Salary was pretty miserable, at least on the lower rungs where I worked.
But that is pretty standard for publishing. Consider it more work
experience, and do it only if you see it as the first step to moving up
the ladder--the payoff is years down the road. I started--with a masters
degree--at about $24k, eventually getting raises to $27.5--not a lot. No
performance bonuses. Also, at the time they had a policy called 'project
employees' that was a way of classifying people as temporary even though
they worked full time, sometimes for years on end. This was how they
avoided paying benefits. Since my days the federal government has put an
end to the practice, but it still left a bad taste in a lot of
employees' mouths. Harcourt General was well known to be a lean
organization (read: cheap).
