Pros

Complete flexibility and it's cool to say I work for iHeartMedia.

Cons

You are majorly micromanaged. Commission isn't worth the work. If you're 100% commission your percentage is only 14%. If you make a sale over 1 million it's only 2.5% which is insane. Everyone says you can make good money, but in order to do it you have to work way harder than they're willing to pay.

Pros

The team is very straightforward and helpful and they are willing to give you whatever tools necesary to win. One of the best teams I have ever worked with to be honestly.

Cons

Not many but you need to be flexible with hours as this is production work but that is industry standard.

Pros

Vast Resources available, biggest player in radio, multiple opportunities for growth, commissions and bonuses among the best out there

Cons

Very minimal base salary for sales positions, surprisingly low for national account executives. Moving goal posts all the time as well on performance and there's usually a sense of angst wondering if middle management positions will get eliminated at any time
