Don't do it - Advertising Consultant Lee Enterprises Employee Review

Pros

Good benefits and free parking.

Cons

Negative environment due to several rounds of layoffs and ceasing to publish several of their smaller publications. The new idea to centralize different key departments company wide across the US to save on cost has caused a drop in the quality of the remaining publications and caused huge stress to the downsized workforce struggling to put out a semblance of the quality product they used to put out. The place has been gutted and has no culture left. Decisions are handed down from the corporate office in Iowa with no care for the consequences it causes to long-time, loyal employees.

Pros

None that I know of.

Cons

Poor benefits, 70-hour work weeks, constant fear of staff reductions, community calls daily complaining about the lack of news. I could go on forever.
