Pros

Great opportunity to work hard and make a lot of money.

Cons

The way the management team conducts business is very unprofessional. Hard work and dedication goes unnoticed and never is there a time that you feel secure in your position with the company. Account executives are often put in tricky situations to make sure station budgets are met. This is a high stress company that would benefit from learning how to work smarter and more efficiently.

Pros

Movement within the company. Certain Sinclair stations are showered with resources. They are constantly looking to improve on the digital front, which is huge.

Cons

Salary is lower than most, management at certain stations is very poor--cares much more about the bottom line than employee well being, will go understaffed for years and look at it as a benefit because they're paying less

Pros

Opportunity to make a difference. Work on technology projects that matter, are professionally interesting, and market relevant. Great lateral and horizontal access to teammates, functions, and decisions across the entire product development process in an agile dev environment. Tech and Dev driven. Start up culture inside a large corporation.

Cons

Multiple aspirational product objectives pose an ongoing risk that resources and organization focus are split too thin -- but that is true for most "tech startups" this size and in this space.
