Full of egos and backstabbers. Probably the worst job I’ve ever had, avoid at all costs. - Anonymous employee iHeartMedia Employee Review

Pros

It’s not the worst place to have on your resume since everyone has heard of it. Pay wasn’t terrible in my case, but I know many who were underpaid. Some real talented people in the lower ranks.

Cons

Some of the worst managers around. People who have no idea how to inspire and coach people and think managing is just telling people to be on time. HR is horrible, any actual person from HR that you interact with just directs you to workday and/or HR4U. Only way to get ahead is to suck up to superiors and allow them to play out their power trips at your expense. Lip service about “being a family” and “great work/life balance”. Absolute LIES. You’ll get texts and emails at all hours and if you don’t respond you’re reprimanded for bad communication skills. Don’t know if this is wide spread but my boss constantly drank in the office. Sent weird late night emails and didn’t remember the next day.

Pros

The company had really good happy hours and events to attend. Food almost everyday.

Cons

Awful management team. Everyone will plot against you if they see potential. Very political culture and one boss there is a weak male figure in the office. If he doesn’t like you all the other managers follow suit. Mind you he has no power at all yet managers at his same level report to him. Must be experienced to work there really come in with a book of business with accounts that have lots of money because that’s all they care about. They will use and abuse you then cast you to the side make sure you have a second job to lean on. Frequent layoffs no managers of color either. Lots of red flags in the begging do not ignore them.
