Pros

A great way to be inducted into the modern world of broadcasting because after you work for SBG, any job with another company will be a step up. Most non or low/middle management employees are very nice, they're all in the same boat after all.

Cons

You will get paid a below average wage. You will not get much training. The Peter Principle is in full effect at SBG. The business model goes for low hanging fruit. Being associated with a right wing company. 1 1/2% annual cost of living wage increases with bonuses based on sales quota performance (sales has separate quotas and bonuses), Don't count of seeing more than $100 extra per year. Unless you're in Baltimore or Seattle, don't expect great equipment or computers. You'll eventually drop down to doing the bare minimum. You'll eventually spend part of your time hoping to get fired.
