Pros

Buying power allows journalists to access vital sources, resources and benefits were OK, camaraderie made it all work. I can recommend depending on position.

Cons

Business-minded approach means people dont get a lot of instruction. People get moved around without notice. Some of the requisites have nothing to do with best for audience.

Pros

Sales team is super bonded over terrible senior management.

Cons

Executive leadership team is not equipped to manage high performing sales people. They mange first year sales reps the same as they manage 20+ years of experience sales reps. 5 members of the sales team have voluntarily walked off the team in the last 2 months and no changes have been made to leadership. Leadership said they were changing our comp plan mid year, but wouldn’t telling us what it was changing to (essentially asking us to sell like normal without telling us what we’d be paid).
