Pros

You get to tell people you work here

Cons

- Talent is wretched and treats people like slaves - No punishment for bad talent behavior - Person leading the newsroom lacks any journalism experience - New President says she wants change, but it has gotten worse since she arrived with EPs scurrying to secure top roles - Reorgs almost every year to benefit top management - HR works for the company to protect the company from people who figured out the bs - HR will only listen when they want to fire someone - Senior Producers and EPs on GMA are verbally abusive - Backstabbing - Promoting people to talent roles bc they know how to read words on a screen, no real journalist among them.
