Pros

Loved working there when it was good. Good people for the most part. It was pretty lax except for live segments. If you get good at it, it's pretty satisfying. Just make sure they schedule you enough and you should love it.

Cons

They hired me for the nightshifts then eventually stopped doing nightshifts, forcing me to work about once a week. I then got rusty. I made mistakes. I was yelled at. I left shortly after. They pay like dirt. $10/hour to manage several concurrent radio stations? Nah. It's very easy to throw everything out of order if you press the wrong button. Some higher-ups or long-standing employees seem like robots. Pretty hard to move up the ladder. One person said they'd been there for a few years and only gotten paid marginally better than me and was bottlenecked for the position that he wanted.

Pros

The team is very straightforward and helpful and they are willing to give you whatever tools necesary to win. One of the best teams I have ever worked with to be honestly.

Cons

Not many but you need to be flexible with hours as this is production work but that is industry standard.

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.
