      Pros

      Great place to cut your teeth as they encourage development and support you regardless of your stage of development. there are some great managers in the building/newsroom but you can count them on one hand. it's a fun place to work for the most part; I rarely worked alongside someone I didn't like or find interesting

      Cons

      upper management (in Atlanta) is either NY rejects or a part of the club that promotes their friends when the show they were on is cancelled. not sure if all newsrooms are this way, but CNN treats newsroom staff like trading cards -- just as you get comfortable, you're traded to a new show/schedule. sometimes it's a compliment, more often it's a backhanded slap in the face.

      Pros

      Good people to work for. Everyone is friendly and works hard. Encourages reaching out to other department for freelance and other opportunities. Supervisors, at least in my department, are easy to reach out and speak out with.

      Cons

      Always dealing with some form of uncertainty given what was gone on over the last two years. Would like to see departments working together, rather than ignore one another.
