      One-size-fits all, top-down management approach, only interested in the bottom line.

      Pros

      Have bought a number of TV stations in last 3 years, including some in larger markets. For those interested in moving up the TV ladder, this makes the process a little easier (if you're not opposed to the cons below).

      Cons

      Very structured, corporate environment. Trying to grow too quickly. Won't hesitate to layoff long-time employees and hire freelancers/less experienced replacements. All salary/contract negotiations must go through central office and they are extremely slow in responding. That being said, this is typical of most media companies nowadays, especially in broadcasting.

      Pros

      Fun place to work with great people! Lisa Barhorst has really made a change to station. It is a fun, great place to work. We now have great management who is extremely helpful and caring. I love coming into work! In the two years that I have been with Sinclair I've seen major positive changes. Sinclair spent millions to move us to a new building in a great area with all new equipment. Our current area was very pleasant and in a bad part if town. They have hired people who are committed and love what they due but yet know how to make it fun. It truly is a great place to work! With great people!

      Cons

      Sometimes it's overwhelming with all the packages we have to offer.
