Pros

TEGNA is a company that is dedicated to their employees and puts people first. The benefits, salaries, etc are all competitive. Corporate leadership is plugged into the pulse of the stations and isn't solely fixated on ratings and revenue. Of all the TV companies I've been with (4) TEGNA is by far the best for employees.

Cons

It's TV news. You're doing less with more and being guided by social media. The general public hates you thanks to the political climate and the pandemic. If you're doing ground level work in a newsroom, it's a lot to handle. TEGNA will support you but it takes a toll mentally.

Pros

Flexible work environment - hybrid

Cons

Heavy workload, way below market compensation for the amount of responsibility, very limited advancement opportunities & uneven workload distribution among teams. In my experience, leadership made repeated statements about promotion opportunities in career growth that ultimately did not materialize. I felt that expectations were set that weren’t followed through on, which made it incredibly difficult to trust leadership. Transparency and follow through on career development could be significantly improved.
