Pros

- Good entry level opportunity for people with literally no TV experience. - Good cross training opportunities for people with <1 year of basic TV experience.

Cons

- Very low pay. $10-12 an hour for most of production the staff. - Talent is often unprofessional and unprepared. - Very low employee morale. Employees constantly complain, but at least you're all in the same boat. - 1 hour of content is stretched to an exhausting 5 hours on the morning show.

KUSI Motto: "If it's news, it's news to us"

Pros

If you have no experience and want to get into the media industry this is the place to work. They will hire people with zero news or TV experience. That is all of the pros here, I rated KUSI 3 stars because I owe the start of my career to them, even though it really is a miserable place to work, I owe them big time.

Cons

Extremely underpaid, without any chance of ever getting a raise. I knew people who were with KUSI for 5 years and didn't get one raise. Everything here is the lowest budget possible. From the employees, to equipment, to facility, to your paycheck. It is a miracle that news ever gets on the show because we were constantly understaffed with equipment that fails all the time. I have never in my entire life, worked at a company with a lower morale amongst employees. People are constantly complaining about the company. They absolutely have good reasons to do so. It just gets old after a while. Nobody ever appreciates the work you put in there. Good luck to you, I absolutely recommend this place to you but be careful about how much time you put in to KUSI. Get in and get out!
