Pros

If you are one of the founders you will be there forever even when you do a mediocre job.

Cons

Horrible Managment who doesn't care about people. They don't promote growth of their employees only to be machines that do the same thing over and over. Not much of a social atmosphere. Practical slavery of Techs and Crews + they don't pay that much. Attitude of Giants but the actual results on screen are mediocre at best.

Pros

- Iconic brand to all US Hispanics. - Great news properties. - Good partnerships with entities like Bill and Melinda Gates foundation that have helped company promote education among US Hispanics. - Diversified suite of offerings: 2 broadcast networks, 9 cable networks, radio network, local TV/radio in 15+ markets, interactive apps and desktop options. - Good compensation. - Decent benefits.

Cons

- Making a profit is the most important thing to the C-suite and board; hence the re-orgs never seize. - Most of the decision makers are not Hispanic, they do not speak Spanish and are very removed from what it means to be bilingual and bi-cultural. While they know what it means from a text book perspective, they lack the practical experience that goes with it. - Unclear how they promote diversity advancement in the sales/corporate side. As I said above, most of the executive talent is not of Hispanic origin. (note: exceptions are Miami-talent and local stations) - Management is investing heavily in revamping image that doesn't need to be revamped with new logos for some of the networks. Ironic that we have never seen other iconic brands do this. Think of when was the last time McDonald's redid the golden arches, or when did Nike redo the swoosh or Coca Cola their logos? Never. - Hypocritical views regarding who they really target. Their core viewer is very Spanish dominant, immigrant/1st generation adults, but now they say they are targeting English-speaking Hispanics.
