Pros

Other than the fact that there is nowhere else to work in the country, there are no good reasons.

Cons

Incompetence. The selling out of journalistic integrity and credibility to the highest bidder. Forcing people to do the work of 3 employees. Refusal to pay overtime, but expecting employees to do 3 times the work in the same time. Every employee is a marketing professional regardless of job title or description. Unethical practices. Low journalistic standards. Employees treated like disposable robots.

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.
