Ascend Media Reviews

No loyalty to long term staff, Low pay, long hours, lots of vacation days but not enough staff to allow you to use them, layoffs are the norm,struggling business.

The morale and corporate culture are, by far, the downsides of working for this company. Among other things, as an employee you might experience FAVORITISM, an inappropriate reporting structure (people reporting to friends or others they have a relationship with outside of the company), a true lack of appreciation for employee contributions, poor communications between staff, a top [management] heavy structure, inconsistent salaries for similar positions and salaries not commensurate with experience/skills, little room for advancement and a company that seems to lack a strong sense of direction with regards to management and employee retention efforts. Turnover rate is VERY high as a result of unhappy employees and frequent layoffs.
