Pros

The company includes a benefits package that adds help for those trying to adopt children.

Cons

The company piles work onto employees, instead of hiring an appropriate number of workers. I was asked to do twice the normal amount of work of others, then criticized for the quality of work. I was also told experience has nothing to do with management, and despite years on the job, was placed under someone with barely any experience. The station changed GMs four times in less than six years, and other management in the building seems to undergo a constant chance.

Pros

This is not the same Sinclair of years ago. For the past two years Sinclair has invested millions of dollars into the infrastructure of their Dayton location, moving us from an office building in a questionable neighborhood to state-of-the-art facilities near the Dayton Mall in Miamisburg. The building is totally renovated and clean and the work environment is fantastic. General Manager, Lisa Barhorst, has transformed Dayton Sinclair into a great place to work. We are held accountable but we still have fun!

Cons

Sometimes have to deal with initiatives that are pushed down from corporate. Can be a juggling act sometimes.
