      Pros

      Small station, so everyone knows each other. Very lax environment.

      Cons

      Small station, only directs one newscast. Management takes a very "hands-off" approach unless something comes up.

      Clueless about a digital strategy, ego-driven corporate mentality that is based on top-down authoritativeness.

      Pros

      They were smart enough to at least recognize that their national strategy for web content was horrible, and began to trust the digital department of one of its subsidiaries to make the bigger decisions about platform, product and marketing approach. They have a lot of "reach" by owning 100+ TV channels, yet they do not effectively take advantage of the economies of scale that affords them. They think that Baltimore is a place people would want to live! Excuse me, they think that an office park outside of Baltimore is where people would want to work.

      Cons

      A clueless, politically-driven, "our way our the highway" upper management from the East Coast who clearly doesn't know what a website past 1999 should look like. Low pay for the industry. Conflicting priorities and business decisions (they will empower two different departments to do the same thing, then ask them to play nice when that causes friction)
