Pros

Once you survive working for this crowd, you can work for anyone. Benefits are standard.

Cons

From my experience management cares about money, not the people making it for them. You work hard & you are loyal, but they are not. WAPT leadership won’t care about your health, your family, or you! You are locked in like a slave because you are FORCED to sign non-compete agreements. Those only benefit this corporation & in no way help you as an employee. This is a toxic place to work and we were managed by threats and intimidation. Management wasn’t honest, so when you combine all of the above, it’s not a pleasant environment.

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.
