Pros

Convenient Location in a solid cement structure.

Cons

It’s like a tomb in there with little innovation, obsolete programs, and no new ideas. Very, very low salaries, except for CEO and her 3 buddies. People can find everything on regular TV or YouTube without “public television” begging for money.

WQED Multimedia Response

In the five years since this review, WQED has been making innovation a priority (e.g. acquiring the teen-focused Steeltown Film Academy in February 2022) and increased compensation during the pandemic to better-align with comparable benchmarks. (Note: WQED has a new CEO as of July 2023.)

Pros

Very nice people, even though a lot of those people have now been laid off. You can feel a sense of pride for the work that you do and it's positive impact in the community.

Cons

Disorganization from the top down. Not many clear organizational goals which leads to confusion and an overall lack or direction. Projects pop up out of nowhere and need completed quickly. There are a lot of C-suite leaders and they make a lot of money for a non-profit. It sort of feels like you're walking on egg shells due to the amount of lay offs that have happened over the past few years. There's also no real on-boarding process or probationary period.
