Inconvénients

Not a lot of room for growth

Avantages

The most valuable training I have ever had. It was information overload sometimes, but looking back I wouldn't change a thing. I have never felt so comfortable to work somewhere. Every person I have encountered has been so helpful, friendly, and genuine. I actually love coming to work!

Inconvénients

The only con is that I am not doing so well at my job, but not for lack of help on their behalf.

Conseils à la direction

Maybe tailor the training to be more job specific, sometimes I didn't know what to focus on the most. Turns out, a lot of the training wasn't for my role.

Avantages

Too many stories to cover - so pick the best ones. Mgt so busy, motivated individuals can write their own ticket. Senior mgt appears to understand digital is the future and is willing to jettison turn-of-screw coverage. Fewer meetings than a decade ago - so way less silly, pointless gatherings.

Inconvénients

Want a mentor? You may be on your own. You must be resourceful and self-directed. Want help? You must cultivate your own network of experts, peers and mentors.

Conseils à la direction

Know your talents' talents. You have limited resources, including people. Know what your people are good at and what they suck at. It's more productive. Lay off the touchy-feely BS, we got a job to do.

Avantages

Communication is top notch. Compensation is more than fair. The company is ahead of the curve on social issues, women's rights, LGBTQ, with a strong emphasis on diversity. Employees are encouraged to take risks and recognition is encouraged.

Inconvénients

This is a difficult industry. Much disruption. The company is very challenged in the transition from print to digital.

Conseils à la direction

Consider unbundling the news package with diverse groupings such as sports, government, local, entertainment. Focus strongly on unique local news and happenings. Pound home the integrity of professionally reported news vs the blogosphere.

Avantages

Very exciting things are happening in the media industry, and Gannett is a great place to see and be part of the industry transformation first-hand. The culture is supportive of innovation and initiative and provides great flexibility for employees. A lot of work goes into creating micro-communities (employee resource groups) where individuals can connect with each other around shared interests. There is visibility...

Inconvénients

The pace of work and pace of change is not for everyone. You need to understand the business transformation strategy and be willing to adapt as the business evolves. The organization is also quite flat, so the traditional linear avenues for promotion aren't always an option. However, there is no shortage of opportunity to grow if you are willing to put the work in.

Avantages

Great Leadership and product/sales training

Inconvénients

Too soon to give an accurate review.
