Pros

I only have one pro working at this job and it's the connection that I have with listeners

Cons

Where do start? I've worked at this company for over two decades and the only time I ever get raises is when minimum wage goes up. It's the worst job in the world and the only reason I've stayed is because of listeners. Management only cares about sales department and they're so busy putting lawn signs on their lawn all the time they don't care about anyone who actually works on air or in a newsroom. The men are paid more than the women for the same job and usually white men are the only ones that get promoted. Don't ever work here unless you want your soul to die and you don't want to be paid what you're actually worth.

Pros

Working from home. Great brand name with a lot of recognition. Leads are in bound and consistent

Cons

Culture. Lack of professionalism. Cliquey environment. Very cut throat. Very high turnover. Most people do not make it past 3 years of employment. Saw hundreds of people hired and fired in a 4 year period. They do not invest in their people. They grind them down and wear them out and just let them go when they’re not useful anymore. Borderline abusive/harassment from leadership when you’re not falling in line or even if you just make a mistake that ends up making them look bad. No coaching through those mistakes nor are you even consulted when you do. Directors and VPs talk about people behind their backs on a regular basis. You can have an outstanding year and have two slows months and they will still let you go. They do not care about anyone at all. The inner circle are very territorial and do not welcome new people to the team unless you have similar lifestyle/party/gambling habits. My advice if you want to be good at this job. Learn how to golf and how to be very political. Don’t expect to grow a career here though
