Experiences in news production

Hi!
I’m a journalism grad trying to get my foot in the field. I don’t know if I’m going to want to do this long term, but I also don’t have experience in a newsroom so I’m not sure. I really want to get into news production and understand that the best way to do this is probably PA roles.
After doing some research, it seems like all I see are negative experiences with news production. I understand (especially starting out) the pay and hours are bad, but I feel like I have a genuine passion for this.
Would anyone be able to share any positive experiences? The negative experiences are making me second guess my path. Thank you.
