Hearst reviews

Old media company. Trying to play catch up in new media. Using the current economy to make much needed staffing cuts.

Hectic pace; schedule can be erratic, and you often had to work holidays, evenings and weekends; no pay raises or bonuses in the last few years; required to pay dues to a union that was weak and unhelpful; there was favoritism to some reporters, who only had to work on 1 or 2 "projects" per year, never had to work weekends or holidays, and were paid better than the rest of the staff.
