Pros

Newsroom teams were excellent coworkers.

Cons

HR and benefits were messed up during the Discovery merger. I hope they settled that! There are toxic circles that need to be removed.

Pros

- Many people are kind - People are for the most part very intelligent and it’s possible to learn a lot - There’s in many cases no lack of work to be done

Cons

- Some teams are operating on bare bones resources - Morale has been on the lower side for many - Some of the leadership’s EQ could stand to be much higher - For many, there’s less optimism for growth opportunities and more concern about potential reductions or doing more with less - Burnout is a big concern for many people - Feels like concerns and issues get swept under the rug or marginalized as not being super meaningful
