Pros

I most value the reputation with the community that the Herald Review has been able to support and maintain throughout the years. I value the leadership in Brett and that he let's people excel in what they're going at and nudges them when they need a nudge. I think our office has a great team that collaborates together and works hard to hand out the best product we can twice a week.

Cons

I feel like there is a different between editorial and sales-- and I might be a little biased because I used to work in sales, but that the editorial is often the first thing that's cut or not appreciated but without good content, one cannot sell the newspaper. When I became editor, I remember everyone congratulating me, and in reality it was almost a slight pay-cut. I think there are things the company can be doing, besides raises if that's out of the question, to do better to make workers/employees feel like they are valued, appreciated, and supported. I absolutely LOVE and ADORE my job-- I enjoy going to work every single day and I think that making people feel valued is a simple way to improve team culture/morale.

Pros

The work-life balance is amazing and our management and overall team in Wyoming is like a family. Our team communication between markets and between employees and management is one of the best companies I have ever worked for.

Cons

The only thing that comes to mind for our region specifically is, I would like to see more effort in promoting circulation and subscription in our markets.
