IS Forever a nightmare to work for

A

In my travels in the area I hear that working for Forever Broadcasting is a churn and burn operation so many people that work there have a short shelf life. Or is what I'm hearing just BS
 
If your talent is limited, you like to collect a check and don't like to work and you love to bitch and complain - it's probably true
 
Yes, it is. The company uses people and then spits them out. Many hard working people are let go because they challenge the corporate management. If you are a yes-man, you may be able to last for a while. If you have any ideas of your own, the axe will come down on you, or you will want to get out as soon as possible because they treat you terribly. It is not a good place to work. (Yes, I have worked there.)
 
I don't know about that. Some people who have interviewed with the Dragon Lady in Altoona over the years might disagree. Not getting hired by Forever could have been a blessing.

Since you have worked there, perhaps you can enlighten us on Pay. Is it your typical pittance or more/less?
 
Pay? Radio? Not the point. Nightmares stem from insecurity, abuse, and lack of respect.
 
Trust me, Forever is way more than a nightmare to work for. Complete lack of respect for any employee that may be smarter than the average Pee-On management position. Any of these so called G.M's , O.M's and Owners included know not enough to cut the mustard and survive long, With your title comes great responsability and some of you can't hack it and when any employee knows more than you, and they will, then you give them the axe. Your next! Don't think your above anybody. Yes I have worked for them in the past they will never change. They all happen to be looking for talent now! Good luck people, get out while you can, Like I did.

Who are these "pee-on management" types that you, obviously, know more than? If your performance is anything like your grammer, I am sure they are happy you "got out when you did."

I am not a fan of what the company has done recently, but the local level people I know/knew who worked there are talented and genuine...at least give examples of who you are talking about.
 
It is not just pee pee manager types that go. Everyone goes. Cause everyone is potentially at fault. Scapegoats 'R' they.
 
Ahhh! That was quick, another one bites the dust. Sales Manager implodes.
 
No, they did away with that requirement when they got rid of St. Christopher and purgatory.
