Pros

Flexibility to work across department and learn from top talent. During my time at iHeartMedia, the culture changed immensely, for the positive, due to new top management. The office certainly has the best management team it has seen, but for the most part, does not have strong employees working under them. Once the sales team is stronger, the Chicago office will thrive under the leadership of the market president. Overall, it is a really fun office.

Cons

It can be difficult to move up, but if you do your job well, it will not go unnoticed. Benefits are not great, and bonuses are few and far in between. They try to do what they can at the local level, but it is very controlled by corporate. Corporate does not understand the local level, so they need to stop micro managing.

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.
