      Bad experience as a entry level worker straight out of college

      Pros

      It can be fun at times going to concerts meeting DJ's with so much creativity. Also it is fun because every day is diffrent The people at the radio station are really nice, fun

      Cons

      The managment in my opinion could use some work. Coming straight from college there was no structure are good training they kind of throw you to the wolves. Then when you ask about possibly watching them cold call to help they say they can't do your job for you. Or when you ask where you can get more information or research on digitial assets we have someone said "your grown you have to just look it up"

      Pros

      -flexible schedule willing to work with family obligations to an extent -fair compensation

      Cons

      -management (outside of GM) has no desire in investing in employees -reviews are a joke and are only done because they are mandatory...nothing ever comes from them -almost a total lack of communication between departments makes it impossible to accomplish even the smallest task -no interest in bringing in/supporting new ideas -absolutely no opportunity for upward movement within the company (would rather hire and fire) -refuse to make employees learn how to use software -refusal to competitively price or learn anything about digital products (just sell it to meet your budget and let someone else figure it out is the motto) -often unfriendly and uninformed staff can scare away listeners and clients
