I've worked for other companies and Gray is hands down the best.

Stress and anxiety most days

Revisión Publicado hace 2 años

I've been with Gray more than 15 years. As friends at other broadcast companies were experiencing furloughs and layoffs, my station never had any. We've had bonuses. Have I been paid what I am worth? Not even close. But, if you're in journalism for the money, you're in the wrong line of work.

Communication is lacking across the board and the current managers could run a master class on how not to handle employees.

Everything they run everyone into the ground and under pay all of production a person who has been there 6 years doesn't get paid over 10 a hour

We have a general manager and that is all. There is a very poor breakdown of power, as well as managers who are only concerned about money. There is no overhead. No hr person on site. No one except GM.

Still getting paid. Year end bonus gone, 401k match down a percent in 2025, appears to be no profit share this year either

More paid time off, more station holidays, free healthcare option, sharing in company success by offering employees bonuses.

Salary, paid time off, staff bonuses

I don't feel undervalued but I do believe there's an opportunity to significantly improve health care benefits. Spouses eligible for health care elsewhere are not eligible for Gray health care even at a premium. That can be tricky.

News stations are 24/7/365 operations. The environment is stressful and takes a toll on employees' wellbeing. Gray does not do enough to make up for that. Its employees constantly run toward tragedy, fight to improve ratings and miss holidays, etc with family. You get a 1.5% annual raise, on average

For a 4-yr degree job, the pay is poor. The pay is not keeping up with inflation. No one can survive on $33K !

I was started on the 3rd of the month. Due to gray policy, i had to wait 2 months to get insurance. And they are very poor policies. I am averaging around 15$. Which is now the minimum wage in my area. It is uncompetitive for the work they expect done.

A legitimate raise and hours that arent horrible.

Theyre good and decent people.

Revisión Publicado hace 2 años

There is a real sense of camaraderie amongst myself and my coworkers, probably because we're all being run ragged and need one another to make things work. Probably the best thing I can say about where I work and the only reason I haven't already left for another job (though I have begun looking).

They are hard workers who get the job done even when the odds are heavily stacked against them. They never give up, and they also never get any accolades for it, and yet they keep giving it their all.

Friendly, supportive, enjoyable to be around, goal-oriented.

The have little or no experience when they're hired. They're hired because they're the least expensive optin. Not their fault. Management's fault.

Better management, more communication and more personal relations instead of focusing all on the money and keeping that for the higher ups.

We set the bar high and we help each other achieve this high standard. It's kind of like peer-pressure -- but in a good way.

Job security. We haven't had layoffs. Instead, the company now offers a free healthcare option, more paid time off, raised the minimum hourly wage to $18/hour. Gray offers a lot of training during onboarding and throughout the year. The HR team holds monthly contests.

Leadership is approachable. New ideas are encouraged. Mistakes aren't the end of the world but an opportunity from which to learn. Management isn't breathing over my shoulder.

It allows prospective employees to decide if they are good fit in our newsroom family -- because that's just as important as the work since we work so closely and in a high-stress environment.
