      Only good if you're working on news

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits packages including 401K, inexpensive medical packages. Kind coworkers across the US, easily accessible by AP communication systems. Good support for people who have work related disabilites

      Cons

      If you are not covered by the news unions, there are little to no raises each year. You are rewarded by being given more work, without any extra compensation or time off. It can be hard to get straight answers from people, and you are usually bounced around from person to person. People don't want to be held accountable for the information that they give. Very difficult to advance in the organization. Business model has been wavering during the past two years. This has created a lot of tension between customers and the AP.
