Good place to work.

Pros

The freedom to make day to day decisions without micro-management, I.E. not having to run everything by your direct report. The ability to take PTO without being denied your desired dates.

Cons

Not from my perspective at all

What can I say? I love my job!

Pros

One of the things I value most is being part of something that serves the community. I really value the people I work with and the supportive environment. Another thing I love about my job as a reporter is the opportunity to learn new things, take on challenges and contribute in a meaningful way.

Cons

I think continuing to expand opportunities for training or professional development would be valuable. It would help employees grow, who in turn, can bring even more to the company and the community. As many people may be struggling financially, I also think paying a livable wage (I have three other jobs to make ends meets) or having additional pay incentives that are tied to performance or extra responsibilities may be motivating for employees.

I can't think of anything.
