Tom Yazwinski
Tom overall is a nice guy. He's changed his ways after reporters brought up his behavior to HR and to him directly. He cares about safety of employees, he's flexible and understanding when it comes to taking time off, celebrates employees birthdays, brings treats, etc. I wish he was a better boss. He was a bit of a micro manager, went out to stories/breaking news that reporters should have gone to, doesn't give feedback and he had favorites. There were moments he would lash out at employees.
An Overall Toxic Work Environment
There were some unprofessional and toxic behavior that was addressed to management and HR but NOTHING was done to resolve the issue. Management is also EXTREMELY shady and at the end of the day all you really are is just an employee. There was also lots of favoritism and if you aren't a favorite they don't care about you. I was incredibly dissapointed with my experience. There's a reason why so many left the business after working at that station.

Tyrant Tom - The worst human being I’ve ever met.
Sexual Discrimination, Sexual Harassment, An Overall Toxic Work Environment
Want to know what it’s like to go to hell? Welcome to KEPR. The most negative, degrading, unhealthy news environment you’ll ever experience. Every other station in the market gets paid way more than every reporter at KEPR. If you accidentally leave a phone charger in the car, the ND will rip your head off, call you an idiot and cuss you out. I’ve experienced many newsroom environments that were all positive and know this is a bad one. It’s such a joke.
DO NOT WORK HERE. Stay away from Tom the Tyrant. Take a job at McDonalds. It’s not worth it.
