Ashley Hall
Condescending, unrealistic, takes the fun out of the job completely
An Overall Toxic Work Environment
The ND doesn’t care about the safety or wellbeing of her employees. Works against us, not with us.
Not a single person here likes the management. ND will lie and say anything/promise to get you in the door and working here. Don’t do it.

She is a toxic, negative, manipulative, and fake.
An Overall Toxic Work Environment
Ashley is not suited as an ND. This station has a lot of new stuff, and will give you loads of experience, but be prepared to work in a hostile, negative environment where you are not valued whatsoever.

Negative, condescending, and passive aggressive leadership style.
An Overall Toxic Work Environment
So unfortunate, because this is a WONDERFUL area! If they treated their people with respect and payed a living wage, people would stay longer. Overall, employees are overworked, taken advantage of, and constantly put into unsafe situations. MMJ's rarely (or never) get photogs, even at night, in unsafe areas, when they've expressed they do not feel comfortable. The news director and general manager are both extremely passive aggressive, and lack basic leadership skills and understanding of what their employees do and what is realistic. Extremely hard to want to come to work here.
Extremely unorganized newsroom. They struggle with keeping people because they are treated so poorly. Many people choose to leave the TV business completely after working here. Expectations as far as daily workload are completely unrealistic, and they put an emphasis on quantity vs. quality. In my time, it became a normal to work as an MMJ turning two packages on two different topics per day, and live for each without a photographer. The quality of work has suffered greatly because of these expectations. It also makes it difficult to feel like employees are doing a good job because this workload. If you're new to the business, I'd encourage you to look for employment elsewhere if you plan to stay in the tv biz, because this place will make you want to change career paths as soon as possible.

Unorganized, uninspiring, out of tough with what our jobs require us to do
An Overall Toxic Work Environment
Leadership and feedback are non- existent unless corporate comes down.
Great starter market, but you’re giving away your soul.

easy to work with, supportive
