Some Good News and Bad News for Those Working at Meredith Stations (Patreon)

The people working at the Meredith owned station got a bit of good news, followed up by some not so good news. 

As FTVLive FIRST reported, Meredith cut employees pay when the COVID-19 pandemic stated and it appears that finally, months later, the company is going to start paying the staff the salary that they signed up for. 

FTVLive obtained an email sent to Meredith employees from CEO Tom Harty, informing them that starting early next month, the staff's pay will return to normal. 

But, later in the memo, he says that the company is still keeping a hiring freeze in place, along with a salary freeze. 

In other words, if you were due for a raise, you ain't getting it. 

Harty also says that will be "no overtime" and no freelancers or temporary employees. 

In other words, keep working your ass off, try not to catch the Rona, and enjoy getting paid exactly the same pay you should have been getting 5 months ago. 

It was not exactly the most uplifting memo.
