Pros

I've worked for several media companies for 20 years and my best experience has been Newsmax. Colleagues are friendly, supportive, none of the backbiting I saw at other newsrooms. Company is actually quite diverse and producers pretty much have a free hand, more than I have seen at other networks. This stuff that Newsmax dictates views is total BS. In fact managers are constantly telling us to get both sides. It's like a mantra here.

Cons

News is a hard business. As a new network staff here is younger and sometimes inexperienced. So there are some hiccups.
