Don't Recommend It - Graphic Designer Sinclair Broadcast Group Employee Review

Pros

Opportunities to work on projects for some great Cincinnati brands - the Bengals, the Reds, etc. Lots of independence & ability to self-manage. Diverse group of employees from every kind of background.

Cons

Low salaries, minimal 2% raises/year & no upward mobility or reward for those who go above & beyond. Depending on department, bad hours. It's Journalism & hearing bad stories every day doesn't get easier with time or experience, so you have to be passionate about it. Parent company - Sinclair Broadcast - is a mess & it trickles down to local stations & managers. Interferes with content of news broadcasts at the local level. Possible layoffs always hanging overhead, always looking to automate jobs & hand duties over to a central hub, yet somehow people who have been with the company for a long time are never at risk, even when their performance is very, very lackluster.
