Pros
Great pay and benefits, especially for a dying industry. Much better facilities investment over the years. Lots of interest in revamping reputation for network of old, middle-class white men. But interest doesn't equal action. The effort is incredibly misguided. Almost as if we're throwing everything up to see what sticks. They finally see the value in podcasts and have put more money into them. Yet they still can't see that modeling the shows after the podcasts is the way to go.
Cons
Digital and radio are completely disconnected which is archaic in this media era. Blame clueless senior-level management. Someone skilled and talented in both is almost forced to choose. In my years I've seen a revolving door of young, diverse talent leave because they're frustrated with a network reluctant to change. And diversity is a joke. Hiring a bunch of minorities but ignoring stories that are unique to their communities isn't diversity... it's filling a quota.
