Community Impact Newspaper Reviews

This company is toxic. They break all labor laws! Trust the bad review. Any good ones are from management and HR. They are supposed to be unbiased and the owner and most of management push their extreme religion and political beliefs on to the employees. They are racist, agiest and if you are not an extreme white christian watch out. They do have a few tolken people to meet law requirements. They will eventually find a reason to fire them. Unless you are desperate for a job look else where!

I’ve been in journalism for a decade now, and this gig straight up ran me out of my life’s passion into another career. Intense micromanagement from the people above you that will make you think you’re the problem no matter the situation. I will echo what others have said as well, if you ever speak up about something, you immediately become a target and will likely be on the chopping block. As far as actual news coverage, it’s nothing like your typical reporting gig. They will hammer home “CI Style” which includes things 99.9% of other publications don’t do, so you really don’t have any creative freedom. You’ll spend much of your time driving through your community begging sources to talk to you, because nobody has heard of Community Impact and nobody takes them seriously as a real news outlet. If you actually want to report on something other than a new owner at a coffee shop, go literally anywhere else.
