Pros

Beautiful building Smart people Delicious cafeteria foods and snacks Looks great on your background Helps you build a thicker skin since you have to to deal with the ruthless sharks in this place...

Cons

Significantly below market salaries Stubborn management who will throw subordinates under the bus at the drop of a hat. No internal mobility Lack of honest communication or integrity No social culture at all If you attempt to think "outside of the box" you will be pushed out, I left on my own - but saw this firsthand from several people on my team. Some of the best in the industry.

Pros

I love working at Hearst in the Baltimore, Maryland market. I have worked for many radio stations over the past nearly 40 years and this is one of the best companies as far as working environment. I really feel cared for here.

Cons

On a personal level, I've had a hard time getting full time employment within the company, which is discouraging. Also, it takes forever for management to make hiring decisions.
