      Good company... too much downsizing

      Pros

      It all depends on how your region/station handles themselves. Clear Channel rewards stations that perform well. There were several times our station received bonus for the great work our sales team did. Leadership was tough, and expected results. Co-workers were very nice and good people to work with. Most of the team was young, but some veterans on the staff were very helpful and informative.

      Cons

      Constant downsizing and need to find areas to make money. If a station is struggling, extra money is not added. Instead, cuts are made, which will eventually kill that station. Many times, you were expected to work much longer than your work day.

      Not bad, not outstanding.

      Pros

      They are the least likely to go broke of most of the major broadcasting companies. They generally own stations that are either in a winning position or held strategically to protect those that are. Their new media initiatives are relatively strong and forward-looking.

      Cons

      There is a homogenized corporate culture and the markets are devoid of individuality. Layoffs are frequent and leave you wondering who else is left to fire. Don't worry, they'll find a way to make someone else do three more jobs.

      Get ready to Party!

      Pros

      It's fun! There are parties to attend constantly and you get the benefits of lots of concerts, sports tickets, etc for free! There are also generally many opportunities for advancement, especially if you are willing to move to a new area and if you are interested in taking on a new job. Once you are in the door, your benefits only increase and the opportunities become more abundant. There are also different branches and a number of training activities, so almost whatever your job, you will have an opportunity to go away for training on that position and related software.

      Cons

      It's publicly traded so there is a lot of red tape. Plus, you have the FCC to watch out for if you are on air. Sometimes you can end up in a market that doesn't have the best management. If the management skills at your particular market are less than adequate, that can really decrease your satisfaction and functionality. I think many people who have worked for Clear Channel and gave a bad review probably just were in a bad market. But Clear Channel is set for success, so if you aren't happy in your market, I'd suggest relocating to another before writing off Clear Channel altogether.
