Pros
Nice company to work for, great work-life balance within my department. Management treated you like an adult, very understanding and communicated very well while going through Covid. A lot of opportunities to take initiative on workflow, policies and procedures within our department. Great resources provided with working remote.
Cons
Position was outsourced due to merger with Gatehouse Media.
- Current Employee, more than 5 years★★★★★
Pros
Gannett continues to grow an award winning branded content team with positive growth, strong leadership and talented executers. COVID has been a challenge for many, but since the team spans across the nation, the WFH transition was fairly seamless. Additionally, Gannett offers above average benefits and (I feel) a good work/life balance.
Cons
Because Gannett is a large company, it is often trying to solve many challenges (internally and externally) with one-size fits all solutions - I assume many companies of this size struggle in this department. Mainly, I think it could be a little more competitive with compensation specifically in competitive markets (but once again, Gannett spans across the entire US with a large majority of it's properties residing in less competitive markets).
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Work life balance and friendly management
Cons
Non-competitive salary, very little constructive feedback
