Great people, best of the mission of public radio All public media stations are growing and developing DE&I. It takes time.

Generous compensation and paid leave. It really all depends on your department and manager. Departments and teams have totally different cultures and are VERY siloed. For example, the membership and development teams are entirely separate and function independently from one another. Cross-departmental communication and collaboration is difficult. Some managers and department leaders are terrific while others leave a lot to be desired and a few are truly terrible. 0.0 NEUTRAL 1.0 APPROVE 0.0 3.0 3.0 3.0 3.0 4.0 2.0 39900 Open Provide staff with opportunities to give feedback about managers and senior leaders. Don't make assumptions about staff needs/wants and don't rely on department leaders to speak for staff. Actually ask staff members what is working for them and what could be improved. Offer more flexibility in terms of work hours and schedules. So many of the meetings and the mandatory social events (specifically the "team building" activities initiated by management) are unnecessary and do not actually contribute to a positive work culture. 0.0 [] REGULAR No No 4.0 Mar 15th, 2021 08:24PM Mar 15th, 2021 08:24PM KQED

There's never a doubt that you work for an organization that cares about its mission. There is little turn over at the top and that can lead to some slower decision making. 1.0 POSITIVE 1.0 POSITIVE 0.0 5.0 4.0 5.0 5.0 4.0 5.0 39900 Open 0.0 [] REGULAR No No 9.0 Mar 15th, 2021 08:24PM Mar 15th, 2021 08:24PM KQED

private:kqed https://www.glassdoor.com?employer_id=39900 Feb 25th, 2020 12:00AM Open Open KQED United States USA Great Mission KQED is starting to hire new, smart people that think in terms of innovation. It's not a sinking ship as people perceive public media to me. There are tons of opportunity for innovation and growth. Leaders bicker over resources and personal allocation causing internal stress between departments. Group decision making causes huge delays in implementing nearly everything project. It's a meetings nightmare organization. Just send an email. Too many lifers, especially in leadership, that are stuck in the past. -1.0 NEGATIVE 0.0 NEUTRAL 0.0 NO_OPINION 1.0 3.0 4.0 3.0 3.0 2.0 1.0 39900 Open Weed out the employees with negative attitudes who drain the organization.

Would be greater if they followed through on it. For every overworked content creator there are five unnecessary middle managers. Only work here if you love playing office politics. Departments are siloed and there is dysfunction and power struggles because of it. -1.0 NEGATIVE -1.0 NEGATIVE -1.0 DISAPPROVE 4.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 1.0 39900 Open Stop creating unnecessary manager roles to promote the friends of people in high places Stop funneling all the money to managers and save some for the actual projects 0.0 [] REGULAR No No 4.0 Mar 15th, 2021 08:24PM Mar 15th, 2021 08:24PM KQED
