Great friendships but favoritism in career advancement.

Pros

Many years working for Scripps, I made a lot of friends.

Cons

While the facilities as 4s ranch are professional, there is a significant lack of transparency regarding "special tasks" and training for Edit team.I observed a pattern where specific co-workers were hand-picked for specialized training and higher-level responsibilities, while others in the same position were denied those same opportunities.This created a two-tier system where career advancement felt based on favoritism rather than merit or job title. There was no clear,objective process used to determine who received this kind of training. It appeared to be based on management preference rather than departmental need.
