Pros

At least they'll give you double-time if you have to work an approved holiday. You also get to keep your hands in the media business.

Cons

iHeart hasn't had salary increase since before the pandemic - at least in the news division. No match for 401K. Health Insurance costly. Overtime isn't permitted unless absolutely necessary. Had to take a 14-cent per hour pay cut when I went from part-time to full-time.

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

Vast Resources available, biggest player in radio, multiple opportunities for growth, commissions and bonuses among the best out there

Cons

Very minimal base salary for sales positions, surprisingly low for national account executives. Moving goal posts all the time as well on performance and there's usually a sense of angst wondering if middle management positions will get eliminated at any time
