They hired me right out of college

They are working diligently to try to figure out how to keep legacy media in business.
Review from Marketing Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Be more in touch. Your newsrooms are dying, especially in the small towns.
Review from Marketing Dept
Leadership is trying to feather their nests as much as possible before the day of reckoning comes.
Review from Marketing Dept
What is the best part about your compensation package?
Salary, PTO is extremely generous. This year, my 25th with the company, I was rewarded with 7 weeks of PTO. Wow!
Review from Marketing Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
I have made 30 k for 3 years. Very hard to make a basic living with college debt. All overtime was taken away. You then seen CEO and corporate salaries explode who don't do the work that pays their salaries.
Review from Marketing Dept
What are some of the best things about your team?
My editor and deputy managing editor are fair with me and provide me the tools and opportunities to do outstanding investigative journalism. The other investigative reporter on the team is top notch, and she and I work extremely well together on projects and in-depth stories.
Review from Marketing Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
No one cares and just look to move on.
Review from Marketing Dept
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
The most positive thing about my company is my bosses allow me to do good investigative work. The most negative thing about my company is the folks in the union who have created a hostile work environment.

What makes you most happy at work?
Doing journalism that makes a substantive difference in my community and being respected by others in the community.
Review from Marketing Dept
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Bosses and executives that care about the papers and the small towns and not just the numbers
Review from Marketing Dept
The company is sinking. Morale is what you'd expect at a place where most people have not gotten a raise in 3+ years but the top executives have paid themselves handsomely.
Review from Marketing Dept
What do you like best about your company?
The company has invested in me financially with a fair, generous salary and PTO. The company also has provided me with out-of-state training at national conferences, and it has given me the freedom to pursue investigative stories.
Review from Marketing Dept
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Larger raises to employees who produce excellent work. Too often those at the top of the pay scale are told the company cannot afford to give raises or more than 1-2 percent because it needs to use the raise pool to help lower-paid employees, who in my opinion do not do similar quality work.
