Pros

Consistent pay, opportunity to pursue other positions within company, plenty of PTO days, good 401k packages and healthcare, beautiful workplace, latest technology available

Cons

very clickish with every team, a lot of stress and pressure to perform without error, job security is often insecure with show cancellations or layoffs, constantly understaffed-thus one person does three people's jobs.

Pros

There's nothing like a daily, live broadcast environment to train you to think and write on your feet. I have seen talented colleagues rise through the ranks, and hard work is appreciated.

Cons

Working in the news doesn't always allow for much creative freedom, and the pace can be a grind...but that's the gig.
