      Opportunity to learn from the ground up but pay is at the lower end of the scale.

      Pros

      Training on the job with no prior experience. Opportunities to learn above and beyond the basic job requirements, if you take the initiative. Fair and understanding management.... very accessible. Decent time off (paid and unpaid). Good PPO health care options.

      Cons

      Pay is at the bottom end of the scale compared to other stations in the Las Vegas area. Pay raises are minuscule (Standard is .25 per year). Pay raise freezes because of the economy. Expansion of the stations channels has lead to a dramatic increase in work load with no additional compensation.

      Work here if you value a broadcast company that runs their stations like it's 1981

      Pros

      From sales standpoint, the company does invest in its people. Make no mistake, SBG is a sales company first and foremost, and a broadcaster operating in the public good second.

      Cons

      See pros. Top line rev is the bottom line. Outside of sales, look elsewhere. Senior management hasn't changed its philosophy in 30 years.
