Vantaggi

Working for this company looks good on a resume (for now). Fun to work downtown with option to work remotely. Note: Be sure to check out reviews of Detroit Media Partnership also. They changed their name to Michigan.com last year in an attempt to rebrand.

Svantaggi

The Detroit News and Free Press papers are dying. When the print side folds, there will be BIG cuts. Unless you've been the same person in charge for the last 15 years, you are absolutely discouraged from contributing anything meaningful to conversations, meetings, projects, etc. Middle management is scared to death of new employees outshining them, probably because of the frequent furloughs, buy-outs and layoffs making a constant job-threatening atmosphere. Also a lot of competitiveness and jealously among colleagues because of this. Tension and hostility EVERYWHERE. There are very, very little chances for advancement of any kind. Benefits were cut a couple years ago, using Obamacare as an excuse. The pay is lower than you can find elsewhere for the same position, and there are NO RAISES.

Vantaggi

I liked the various graphic design jobs I had within this company.

Svantaggi

No opportunity for advancement at the level I was at. I had wanted a job in management, but had been turned down even though my qualifications were exceptional.

Vantaggi

It's a well established organization with many good people still working there and it feels like a family working in the lower ranks. An expert with unique skills who does not rock the boat can work there for many years. Relaxing office atmosphere in most departments, some management is willing to have flexible work schedule. Company is owned by a large corporate parents and is a great place to learn what not to do in management if you are looking to hone supervisory skills by osmosis. Company is trying very hard to be innovative.

Svantaggi

Lack of competent leadership in technology and advertising fields. Cronyism on the top levels of management. Not competitive compensation for high tech jobs. Very limited growth opportunities for people who work hard, new responsibilities are assigned as more people are leaving. Big media company with small IT and Newmedia departments makes it harder to get job done right.
