      Pros

      benefits were compatible or in some cases better than other television networks. encourage growth and offer many ways to improve.

      Cons

      no long term planning and within the news environment, your life needs to be very flexible. Some areas are very easy to move up within the company, others are not.

      Management can't figure it out

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits - extensive time off. The "little people" work their butts off

      Cons

      Senior management can't figure out what they want the network to be. News? Scripted shows? Politics? Because they can't figure it out, they let people go. Also, everything is very "siloed" so each group has no idea what the other group is working on. Shows compete against each other for guests or pieces. You have to try to do everything 15 times because there is no central authority saying "This is how we are doing it and everyone will use this guest or piece."
