Sinclair Broadcast Group reviews

Worst benefits I've ever seen: - No health until the 1st of the month FOLLOWING 75 days of employment (so ~76-90 days) - One may not take vacation/sick/personal time for the first 6 months - No 401K matching for a year (and their match is only 0.5% per percent up to a whopping 2%) - No stock options for a year (actually typical) As for the Digital Group itself: - The group is growing rapidly, and has reached the point that organization, management, and finding ownership of problems has broken down - The group has too many poor- and non-contributors on the team that take up space and get in the way of progress

The application of scrum and other planning processes is hamfisted and dogmatic; Totally prevents the teams from improving themselves. Decisions are made either randomly, based on laziness, or using highest paid person's opinion. Using data or experiments to make decisions is barely given lip-service. They've not nailed down roles and responsibilities in any job role and almost completely lack the ability to remove the few toxic individuals or poor performers. Their hiring strategy is nonsense. Managers have hardly any autonomy, expectations, or defined responsibilities. Directors make up a big crony culture and play favorites. Meanwhile they don't develop their people or expect that of their reports.
