New York Post reviews

Antiquated, backwards business practices that stunted revenue growth as well as internal moral. Upper management often favored old practices over innovative concepts in terms of training new hires and improving their products. Upper management was also completely self involved to the point where they would often make up stories about "amazing sales" they made back in the day, yet knew little to nothing about current brands or their marketing strategies; their egos often got in the way of the overall success of the department. The program is a great way to learn about ad sales, and to leverage pay and positions at other companies.

Upper-level management is a mess. The top guys running it refuse to educate themselves on the changing digital market, and create unrealistic expectations for selling newspaper ads. Extremely politicized - certain people are liked while others are hated for no apparent reason; gossip runs rampant. If you're not liked, even if you're achieving your goals and doing well at your job, no one will acknowledge it. If you're liked, you can get away with spending most of your day chatting in managers' offices and doing very little work. Compensation is poor - its best for the staff to go through the program, do their dues, and get paid more somewhere else.
