If you have an active subscription, the Avid Complete Pro Dynamics are a
must-have. The compressor would be my go-to, and for quick setup there are
presets for broadcast speech under the vocals submenu. The multiband plugin can
do up and down compression or expanding. The expander has a really easy duck
mode for sidechaining from spoken word. Lastly, the limiter is designed with
EBU specs. As for Waves, they are also great, and their new installer seems to
have been redesigned for accessibility, which was the only accessibility issue
before. Their plugins make up the majority of my third party go-to picks.
