Pros
The people in the newsroom really care about the news and each other.
Cons
Paid like we're running a Taco Bell. Compensation falls severely below what other local stations are paying. It's borderline criminal with how high our performance and ratings are. Upper management is aware of the market and see the people leaving, but do not care that their newsroom is understaffed, and that their employees are overworked and underpaid. If concerns surrounding this are voiced, we're told "deal with it, or there's the door." They'd rather lose long-time dependable, diligent, and knowledgeable employees than give them a fair/competitive wage. Heartbreaking.
