Pros

Working at Hearst looks good on a resume and that’s pretty much it

Cons

There’s absolutely no organization or process. This is the most toxic culture I’ve ever seen. I had to sit on multiple meetings where upper management screamed and belittled people in front of groups - sometimes as large as 20-30 people. Also was encouraged by senior management to treat another employee badly because they weren’t meeting deadlines.

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.
