      Executive-level management was incompetent, disrespectful and ridiculous

      Pros

      There are some good people who work at some of the television stations. They work hard, try to treat you well, but have their hands tied behind their back due to corporate.

      Cons

      Small communications ownership group. Their newspapers are bleeding, which in turn places pressure on the television side of things, so bring in more revenue. So if you're at a newspaper, your job is on the chopping block. If you're in television, you're working hard to keep someone else's job on the newspaper side from disappearing.

      Pros

      The Company is very technology driven. The benefit package is top notch and unmatched in the region or field.

      Cons

      Many times when employees have concerns it fall upon deaf ears in the lower and mid management ranks. The senior management tend to be very hands off and rely too heavily upon mid management to find out how the company is functioning. Lower and mid management puts on a happy face to the senior staff even if everything is crumbling around them. On the technological side there are very few people to turn to when there is a question in the field and lower management in many cases feels that they don't need to know any of the answers.
