Pros

Some of the best storytellers on the globe work for a Tegna Station. They truly believe in Storytelling.

Cons

Salaries are NOT commiserate with cost of living in any city. 2%3% raises (if you get one) are all they are willing to give. Feedback is almost nonexistent. Corporate and local stations are not on the same page with direction of the company. MMJ concept is very lopsided and management does not seem to care if they sink or swim. They just want the black holes between commercials. Training is almost nonexistent as well.

Pros

Flexible work environment - hybrid

Cons

Heavy workload, way below market compensation for the amount of responsibility, very limited advancement opportunities & uneven workload distribution among teams. In my experience, leadership made repeated statements about promotion opportunities in career growth that ultimately did not materialize. I felt that expectations were set that weren’t followed through on, which made it incredibly difficult to trust leadership. Transparency and follow through on career development could be significantly improved.
