Not worth working here

Pros

Good opportunity to move up in the organization.

Cons

Compensation was low for employees who work incredibly hard and very long hours. It's embarrassing how unsupportive and loyal higher management is at TEGNA. There is very little recognition, which make all of your handwork feel absolutely pointless. Favoritism is completely evident and not at all avoidable. Culture is horrific. I do not recommend this company to anyone.

Pros

Always had great fellow employees, unfortunately no one stays

Cons

Terrible news management, the turn over is unbelievable! The health benefits are basically non existent . The station I worked at fell from second to the bottom because they let go all the experienced people over the years. Amateur hour.

Pros

No overtime. If you need a job to get you to the next job this is a great company. They hire people quickly due to turnover.

Cons

Benefits were the bare minimum. Compensation was horrible. Managers were extremely under qualified. Inventory was mismanaged and new business expectations were ridiculous.
