Pros

The people-- depending on the department the people are amazing, smart, friendly, and helpful The work/life balance-- depending on the team, you actually have a really pleasant work/life balance

Cons

The Senior Managers-- very disconnected and disengaged with the mid-senior and junior staff The Pay-- it's offensively low... yes... OFFENSIVELY low The benefits-- you think they're good and then you realize just how expensive it is The content-- they refuse to expand and try new content that isn't produced by Televisa Growth Opportunities-- you really have to take charge of your own growth here. There's no real protocol as to who gets promoted first or why The Sales Team-- they are an unpleasant special bunch who don't really know much about Hispanics or Univision media. Sad and toxic group.

Pros

Not much, make some good friends, learn about media.

Cons

Local Media is not a good place to work for women. Very male dominated and some people address emails with "Gents" hmmm news flash, it's 2016! Unless you are a white male, you won't get anywhere with the new president of local media. He only likes to address men and won't even acknowledge a woman's presence. Even the senior finance team is all men - no female SVP. Digital is the same story. So don't bother to work here if you are of color and/or female. #glassceiling. One last thing I found out: huge pay disparity between genders. A lot of people are soooo underpaid, some 24-yr analyst (guy) paid 6 figures vs someone with MBA and 15yrs+ experience who barely makes same (woman) .... Info straight from HR.

Pros

Coworkers are like family, they look out for one another and that is difficult to find in a cut throat industry.

Cons

Upper management decisions are made without consulting Managing Editors or Executive Producers, which makes it difficult to enforce policy that supervisors are against in the first place. Theres always a "hiring freeze" while millions are given to VPs in bonuses and employees work 60+ hours to cover for lack of staff. I regularly saw people getting over looked for opportunities, they would leave and win emmys elsewhere. I saw one person with 3 years experience in the same position train some else with no experience and 6 months later, the new hire would be offered a higher position.
