Back in early March, during a weekly market manager call, we discussed the plan to protect our people as we started to face the unprecedented impact COVID- 19 would have on our communities, our business and our company. Our course of action was never in question - NRG Media would stand by its team. We would take care of our people for they are our BRAND - we have their backs!
