iHeartMedia reviews

perks, cool company, good people

I have had three different managers at iHeart and have liked all of them. In my department, managers are encouraged to support their staff and to work with the staff to find solutions when problems arise instead of reprimanding them. People are very nice in the company, the projects are fun and interesting, and the occasional free tickets to concerts and events are nice too. I am a midlevel employee but always have access to executives, which I appreciate. The top exec's all know who people are and treat them kindly, from what I have seen, and experienced for myself. During the pandemic, the C Suite executives, presidents, and managers worked very hard to keep people employed and working. That was hard because there are a lot of live events or travel based prizes that were planned for content (and a lot of it was sponsored and paid for) but everyone worked on shifting plans, adapting, and finding ways to make things work. I was really appreciative of their transparency and humanity and was so grateful to have a job. In my department, they try to be supportive of having a work-life balance, which is great. They allow flexibility (to a reasonable degree) for doctors appointments, education, family events and such. There are other departments that are expected to work during vacations or family events, if something comes up. There are lots of opportunities for people in New York and Nashville to learn new skills, take new positions, and move up or around within the company which can come with some increases in wages but this is harder if you do not live in those areas.
