Pros

Sinclair is a good place to get your feet wet. If you can get in the door, it is a definite plus on your resume.

Cons

Management is either clueless or just genuinely doesn't know what they are doing. They ask for suggestions, then never use any or come up with solutions to office issues on their own. They are also pretty bad when it comes to treating people with respect. If you are "lower" on the job chain then them, they might not even see you when they walk by. The holiday situation is pretty grim as well. If you like taking holidays, this may not be the place for you. Also, they have a pretty high turn over rate in certain departments.

Pros

Company feels stable. They are continuously growing. Steady 8:30am-5:30pm, M-F. Decent benefits. Fun perks like occasionally lunch will be bought for the employees. Excellent Christmas party. Pretty good insurance options. Standard 6 holidays a year. 2 weeks vacation when starting.

Cons

Pay could be higher or 401k match could be higher. The SASO (Sinclair Advertising Support Operations) department (formerly known as a traffic dept) is tough and mentally taxing work. Long, sitting hours.
