Pros

Great people, supportive and understanding immediate supervisors who listen to suggestions and correct problems. Casual atmosphere with room to speak freely, laugh and have fun to break the stress of ongoing news deadlines.

Cons

Upper management entrenched, refusing to recognize a series of bad hires and the problems with those hires. Employees who predated this management are generally ignored and disregarded while the bad hires are the favorites.

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.
