Pros

If you tow the party line, you're fine. If you attempt to have any free-thinking ideas, you will be out the door.

Cons

Highly political environment. They could care less what you know as long as you do what you are told and on time. Even then there is always risk they will lay you off because they are reckless when it comes to that.

Pros

I love working at Hearst in the Baltimore, Maryland market. I have worked for many radio stations over the past nearly 40 years and this is one of the best companies as far as working environment. I really feel cared for here.

Cons

On a personal level, I've had a hard time getting full time employment within the company, which is discouraging. Also, it takes forever for management to make hiring decisions.
