Pros

insurance, vacation, sick days, personal days

Cons

If your manager takes credit for your work and ideas. Your screwed. Your raises are based on your review. And you cannot get an A+ for the full raise. The effort to keep your pay down is extreme. It kills your insentive to go above and beyond.

Pros

There are some good people who work at some of the television stations. They work hard, try to treat you well, but have their hands tied behind their back due to corporate.

Cons

Small communications ownership group. Their newspapers are bleeding, which in turn places pressure on the television side of things, so bring in more revenue. So if you're at a newspaper, your job is on the chopping block. If you're in television, you're working hard to keep someone else's job on the newspaper side from disappearing.
