I am currently homeless because of Nexstar!
Pros
Some of the people were okay. Also, someone kept putting homegrown vegetables in the station's kitchen!
Cons
I applied for a position I've done for many years at other tv stations, one which I can almost do in my sleep. I got that job. Then, before I had even started, I was asked by management to consider taking on a different job, one which I haven't performed in almost two decades. I explained that I would require substantial training for that position since I hadn't done it in so long. "You will be given all the time you need to learn," I was told. "We will evaluate your progress at a later date." Based on that response, I accepted the second job. I moved from out of state for this opportunity. I broke my apartment lease and packed up all of my belongings just to work for Nexstar. I moved my belongings into a hotel since I hadn't yet found an apartment. I was then let go after only 19 days, no reason given. I moved all my belongings from one state to another for NOTHING. I have almost two decades of tv experience but I was let go by Nexstar after only 19 days from a position I hadn't even applied for! Now I am effectively homeless. Now I'm sitting in a crappy hotel room burning away my money hoping someone calls to offer me a job. Thanks, Nexstar! Truly classy people! Seriously, think twice before agreeing to work for these shysters. If Walmart calls you first, accept the offer! DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN TO YOU! DO NOT WORK FOR THESE PEOPLE!
