Pros

Tegna provides limitless opportunities for recent college graduates or individuals new to the business. The company strives to build a media empire using Multimedia Journalists. This will provide you with the ability to participate in a multitude of jobs.

Cons

Tegna is not a company that values it's employees long term. They specialize in hiring young an inexperienced employees when it comes to broadcast. Out of all of the media companies Tegna is the least competitive. Their pay scale is at the bottom. The pay is better in higher markets but they trail the other stations. Tegna is the broadcast company that split from Gannett. They are still trying to figure out where their place is in the media landscape.

Pros

Forward thinking company. Seem to want their employees to be happy and successful.

Cons

Culture varies dramatically depending on what station you work for. Goals are too high and digital partnership currently in place is useless.
