Great - Sales Development Representative Media Source Employee Review

This company has an outstanding mission of serving libraries, schools, and literacy through magazines and events, and most of the wonderful people who work there are 100% behind this mission.

Toward the end of the time I was there, the management team seemed more concerned about keeping the investors happy than in upholding that mission. Which I can understand from a practical standpoint. Their butts were on the line. But when this kind of motivation becomes too transparent, it can hurt the overall morale of the business and even, in some cases, create a toxic culture. From what I understand, though, the worst of that management team has moved on, so it may be a much different place to work now.

There are some good supervisors and decent PTO, but that's it.

This company DOES NOT CARE about its employees. They play favorites and everyone else is overworked and underpaid. Salaries are well below market value, the higher ups are unfeeling and have no interest in investing in their staff. This place is a comedy of errors with structure and processes changing at the drop of a hat. You will be scrambling at the eleventh hour. Longtime employees can get away with not doing their jobs at the expense of new staff. They also keep randomly laying off people because they aren't making enough money. HR is completely incompetent and does not take complaints seriously. You will never grow or be respected here.
