Pros

The benefits package was outstanding if the pay was not. Also, they do have ownership of all the good tools for programming that you would ever want (Selector, tons of radio ratings tools, etc.)

Cons

Management some of the worst money grubbing people I have ever met. People hired then fired within 6 months because "change" was needed. Revolving door. Programming people -- the people who work on the product they theoretically sell to advertisers -- treated like worthless and unnessesary expenses (drains) on budget.

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

The company had really good happy hours and events to attend. Food almost everyday.

Cons

Awful management team. Everyone will plot against you if they see potential. Very political culture and one boss there is a weak male figure in the office. If he doesn’t like you all the other managers follow suit. Mind you he has no power at all yet managers at his same level report to him. Must be experienced to work there really come in with a book of business with accounts that have lots of money because that’s all they care about. They will use and abuse you then cast you to the side make sure you have a second job to lean on. Frequent layoffs no managers of color either. Lots of red flags in the begging do not ignore them.
