Pros

To work in the media industry these days is tough of course. But despite big lay offs, people are still energetic and optimistic and come with new ideas on a daily basis. And have never worked at a place with so many talented people.

Cons

Could be better communication between the local newspapers and the HQ. Could be better cooperation between online and print.

Pros

Well-organized and good communication. As a contractor, I found Hearst to be a pleasure to work with.

Cons

I don't have any cons to report other than that the accounts payable is out of North Carolina and can take 60 days to receive payment.
