Cons

Sinclair acquired my company, DataSphere Technologies, in June of this year. It was a total disaster from the get go. They had no concern for the people behind the company they bought. HR was relatively useless and responded to most inquiries with "I don't know" or "let me get back to you" and then never responded. Every new hire brought on in the first month of the acquisition quit because of system issues, pay issues, and/or a general feeling of chaos. They took no time to understand the processes in place that had made the company function and succeed, but instead forced their processes (or lack there of) on the employees and only asked questions when things went wrong because those processes didn't work. They were constantly putting out fires instead of preventing them in the first place. Communication between hire ups seemed non-existent and there was no culture of ownership when basic issues like payroll, simple budgets, or system questions came up. Everything was someone else's problem, but who that someone else was is a mystery. They were too busy buying a monopoly on the broadcast market to care about the people who's lives they were affecting.
