Pros

The staff is a great group of warm people who feel, at times, more like family. The Benefits are unmatched, with a robust 401K and PTO structure. At the technician level, you can find industry veterans with years of experience under their belt-real problem solvers. For all the difficult and challenging productions that MBN pulls off, it is the technicians that deserve the credit.

Cons

There are a handful of staff members mailing in work. Putting the minimum amount of effort to get by. This could be because hard work and extra effort are not recognized or even encouraged from a top down perspective. Executive management is often disconnected with overall operations, but is very heavy handed in micro managing staff level culture (not operations). Lots of rules related to where and when you can be sitting, or what you should be wearing, or how to spend your down time. Not enough focus on collaboration, communication, project debriefs. The micro managing is perceived as a lack of trust and respect for the high performers. Too often, i witnessed sweeping corrective actions on the entire group, when surgical actions were a better perscription.

Pros

Good hard working people under appreciated personnel for the most part. I used to love what i did but had zero support. One raise in the past 7 years, Benefits were good but the management started eliminating them one by one... Good vacation days

Cons

Stressful working environment, Horrible managers I was in the current affairs department and the manager was an insecure schyzophrenic bipolar despot who doesn't know a thing about production. She has very bad managment skills always putting employees down and taking out her anger and personal issues on them. New management was supposedly changing things around, everyone was hopeful but instead the new Company President kept all the formers managers, so now an ambiance of fear and panic reigns. The whole TV is in a state of hiatus especially that the best producers they had are no longer employed there.
