Pros

The co-workers are a hoot to work with. It helps makes the day go by faster and makes life so much easier when you have good co-workers.

Cons

Managers all walk around with their ideas, each of them not thinking them out fully and some don't know how to plan properly. Some of the managers walk around glassy eyed because they don't know what they're supposed to do. Pay isn't great, and there's no room to improve. You can work 56 hours a week to get your job done and still not have it completed. No one knows what the others are supposed to do, management styles are skewed.

Pros

I think your enjoyment with this company comes entirely from the local team you work with. My team is GREAT - For our size, we're a very high performing station in the company and the best in our market. The sales department has its hiccups but works really well together when it matters most. If you're aiming for career growth you need to be strategic with what position you start in. Pay sucks at first but you get an annual raise and I've gotten multiple performance raises (I've worked here for 5 years and I'm making almost 13k more than when I started). Work life balance totally depends on your job. - Health insurance - Great (specialized) experience - Local station recognition - Pretty stable employment (in the sales department, at least)

Cons

- Layoffs in other departments - Corporate decisions make work much harder fort he people these decisions affect - Acquisition of Tegna - PTO policy could really use a change (especially for Holidays)
