Pros

-The people working there are generally very chill and cool, far better than any corpo-types I've dealt with in my life.

Cons

-Public media has no future. They have no idea how to survive zoomies and alphas transitioning to YouTube for entertainment. -Their budgets are getting obliterated across the board and all of their donors are extremely elderly oligarchs. Most of their regular supporters are over 50 too. -As a consequence, you will NEVER get a raise, you will NEVER get a performance bonus, and you will LIKELY get laid off at some point. I'm hanging out for a few more months until I qualify for a pension and then bailing. It's over.
