Nexstar Broadcasting Group Leadership Employee Reviews
What do you like best about the leadership team?
She actually listens and is respectful.
Review from Operations Dept
Willing to listen to every employee
My manager started from the same level I did and is very knowledgeable and understanding of the industries workflow and he fights for the recognition I deserve whenever he has the chance to, however often it may fall on deaf ears.
They trust me and my work and let me lead my team
Local Leadership is good, corporate leadership is out of touch with what it takes to Win. They do not allow for local control or empowerment. The culture at our station is quickly changing as talented people leave and are replaced by inexperienced new hires.
Treat me as a human even under stress
Excellent attitude with a great mission. They are a super team and very good people.
I like the camaraderie we feel toward each other
General Sales Manager is the best I?
they want to grow & expand the business and take steps to do that
Review from Operations Dept
They don’t micromanage their employees
Review from Operations Dept
i don't like anything about them.
Review from Operations Dept
Love the local leadership.. but the corporate is clueless to how to operate individual markets
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Communication, valuing their employees, training and growth opportunities, listening to employee concerns and not just brushing them off.
Actually leading and less sitting at a desk doing nothing.
Communication and having those hard conversations to keep everyone in the loop when dealing with technical failures that could effect everybody's ability to do their job.
Making diversity & inclusion welcomed and valued in the company. The building is a "boiler room" because it's hot, as the leadership appears oblivious in SLC. Something needs to be done for us in traffic & sales to obtain us better working conditions.
Communication within ranks and accountability
Get out if the 1980s
Act like you care about employees. Take some modern management classes.
They are an old guard trying to compete in a digital space. No one really knows what to do which puts stress on the individual for station web metrics. Again because its an antiquated management, they refuse to take ideas on how to engage an online audience unless it comes from corporate leadership.
Listening to their employees. Offering a better compensation package.
Pay people their worth and communicate with the team
The leadership team needs to lead instead of worrying about being everybody's friend.
Better resources. Pay better. Quit treating employees line endentured servents.
Communication. Culture. Becoming a CAREER ACCELERANT. Listening to employees. Following news ethics. DEI.
Review from Operations Dept
Everything from pay, employee treatment, work ethic, hiring practices, management, the whole works.
Review from Operations Dept
High turn over and change. No communication.
Team relations/communication/trust. I work in sales, so it comes with a competitive nature in and of itself, but the culture here is unnecessarily toxic. More time and effort needs to be put into training and taking care of current employees as opposed to buying every station in the U.S.
Devises a strategy, but constantly changes. Organization has 3 different outcome decide within the 5 months
Treating their employees like human beings rather than like numbers. Nexstar corporate does not care about their employees and it shows in the poor pay, old equipment, and exhausted workforce.
Understanding how their decisions are implemented in the real world.
Better job candidates. Standards are dropping fast in favor of cheaper labor that can be burdened with responsibilities previously multiple people. INCREASE THE PAY!! In 2017 the CEO made 497x the average Nexstar employee. Just under $20,000,000 and the typical employee makes under $40k
