Pros

It was a job, for the most part.

Cons

I could name multiple things here, but like any corporate business: -They make bad business deals and the local employees pay for these mistakes. -They only care about Wall Street. -Employees are just a means to an end, even though corporate all have golden parachutes. -They are behind in the business, and they are unwilling to keep equipment updated to be able to produce the product and it costs them revenue. -They always want the best candidates for positions, but are unwilling to pay them to have the best. The media business is changing very fast and Sinclair can't keep up.
