Pros

the health benefits are amazing- especially maternity leave. And I love my team- the other producers and talent are so great and we have so much fun together in the mornings!

Cons

as a morning news producer I have almost zero work/life balance. I have to sleep during the day, I’m almost too exhausted to play with my toddler, and I don’t have time to hang out with friends anymore.

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.
