Mismanaged, declining revenue and readership - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Centre Daily Times

Management encourages people with good ideas and initiative, promotes from within whenever possible. New editorial staff is changing the direction of focus to new media. Digital emphasis blooming with new publisher.

It is hard to be a locally focused company as part of a large national chain, especially in an industry like the media.

Most of the people are amazing. They want to make things work. They have ideas and ethics. The editors below the executive editor are great.

The new executive editor is clueless, reactive, tempermental and untrustworthy. The corporate (McClatchy) interference gets in the way of a successful product for a market that the national leadership just doesn't understand. New initiatives are rolled out with fanfare and years of pointless droning corporate conference call meetings, but 80 percent gets dropped within months, making all of that effort a waste of time and effort that would have been better directed at just doing the job.
