Pros
Great behind-the-curtain investigations Access to first draft of local history Professional editors and colleagues Status of working for the nation's 13th largest newspaper with more than 500,000 Sunday subscribers Open-door welcoming to politics, sports, businesses, schools Ability to be published in other Gannett publications such as USA Today Outside of the office, a fun way to spend the first several years out of college A place where extra effort and achievement is recognized
Cons
Frequent reorganizations Very low morale Top management interested in award winners, everyone else is a bloated salary Managers are more interested in saving their own skin than going out on a limb to support employees Top management is dependent upon reporters and photographers to sell the Republic "Brand" through social media in an effort to save the paper and increase revenue.
