Pros

You get in touch with almost every branch of the editorial process, which are great networking opportunities. The pay is top-notch in the news business. It's not much compared to other industries, but definitely better than local stations.

Cons

Sometimes rotating shifts and crazy working hours. Be ready to work on Christmas, New Year's Eve, and/or Thanksgiving.
