Oh boy
|
|
You get to work in sports. Its great working and watching the game. Most of the employees are good people to work with.
|
Management. They have no idea what they're doing. They come up with ridiculous segments that no one cares about. Also, some of their talent have no credibility so why would anyone turn them on so get their opinion? Management doesn't pay everyone fairly, they string everyone along. They keep saying everything is fine even though they have had 3 major layoffs in the last year.

Bad pay, bad hours, bad future
|
|
You get to work in sports, which is a huge plus.
|
Because you work in sports, you make a horrible salary and have essentially no social life.

A view from inside 120 Sports
|
|
Fun and friendly staff, plenty of vacation days, nice perks including White Sox tickets and in the rare cases of promotion it's been done from within
|
Cheap, very limited parking and reserved for management, plus front line staff is completely ignored by upper management. Basically there are too many Chiefs, not enough Indians and those Chiefs are completely disconnected and indifferent yet have grandiose expectations without providing proper and/or inferior resources

Too many closed door meetings and multiple layoffs have created an atmosphere of fear resulting in employee dissatisfaction and high turnover rate. Quit hiding in your offices behind closed doors and get engaged with ALL your staff

Lots of change, little direction
|
|
- Good PTO policy
- watching sports for a living
|
- you may never get a weekend day off, unless you burn your PTO to do so
- terrible communication between management and employees... and different departments
- things change daily, sometimes without supervisors even knowing
- pay for the work you do
- very young, seems like a playground instead of a newsroom at points

Promising company with a lot of problems
|
|
It is a great company for people who are new to the industry. It can be very hard to set down in Chicago from elsewhere and get a job in video production. It is a good resume builder.
|
Management does not really care about its low-level employees. They maintain production by hiring people with very little experience and paying them correspondingly low. There is very little room to grow in this company, so expect to be where you are for a while. Some departments have upward movement while other are neutered.

Certain managers are vulgar, sexist, and unprofessional to the nth degree. It does not feel like a legitimate production company and will not until major changes are made.

Worst employer
|
|
Good foot in the door job, but nothing more than that. Don't stay longer than you absolutely need to.
|
Management belittles everyone. Witnessed a supervisor call someone "retarded" because of a typo. No joke. The environment is toxic because of the management team's condescending attitude. They pretend it's all in good fun but the negative environment it creates is pervasive. I wouldn't recommend this job if you want to love what you do.

Poor Management, Awful Advancement and Compensation, Unethical Business Practices
|
|
Full Benefits for Employees, Fun atmosphere at times, Get to work in sports news
|
Very poorly managed especially from the standpoint of advancement and compensating the employees for the work that is done. They often leverage more responsibilities on employees without properly paying them for their elevated role or title. Issues with CP's, specifically yelling at and criticizing PA's in front of the rest of their coworkers. Advancement is not always based on the hard work that you put in, but rather the personal relationship you have with the managers.

won't pay employees what they're worth
|
|
gain experience for your resume, become part of the 120 Sports family. slim ability to work up the ladder of positions within the company
|
low pay, horrible hours, lots of stress, some managers unleash their fury on you on a daily basis if you make a small error. management is not transparent with things going on in the company. favoritism towards employees. the list goes on and on!

pay employees what they're worth, or you will consistently put out a product that is marginal and below industry standards. be transparent and let employees know how the state of the company is. don't lie to employees saying "we will pay you to attend this meeting, then lay off half your work force" make sure your talent actually knows something about sports before you hire them
