Pros

Telling people you work for iHeart. Fiscally responsible decisions during COVID (i.e. furloughs, layoffs, suspending 401k match, forced unpaid vacation, executive pay cuts). While unpleasant, they did all they could in evolving sequence, to weather the hit to revenue, and used layoffs as a last resort. It was a good effort.

Cons

The executive team. The company's irresponsible internal (employee focused) response to racism in our society. The amount of $$ that our executives make - and their perks - relative to employee population. While glad these people have jobs, our CEO and other senior leaders probably don't need 2-3 personal assistants each. No progressive thinking on benefits/total rewards. Hired a chief people officer to lead HR and talent initiatives out of the stone age only to fire her a year later for challenging the status quo (replaced her with an internal sales/marketing leader - a favorite of the CEO - with no HR experience; also named her the chief diversity officer, but no diversity experience. She's lovely, but imagine there might be a more qualified diverse human out there for this role at such a prominent company). Still no paid maternity leave.
