KRDO

I learned a lot here, and based on my experience I was able to move up to a bigger station. Cindy, Natalie and other members were helpful in their advice.

Sometimes it gets chaotic but what newsroom isn't. I like the place, it has good benefits, a good News Director, and amazingly a good Human Resources lady that cares. so all in all I recommend KRDO. It is better than most station.

An Overall Toxic Work Environment

Just unprofessional. That's the management side. Everything else is fine, but Mike Rausch and Cindy Dixon are very condescending and detrimental to the team.

Don't come here until Mike and Cindy are booted.

An Overall Toxic Work Environment

It was tough working here. I am an individual of few words, so I'll make this quick. The newsroom is incredibly divided. Mike has created a hostile work environment since he took over a few years back. I honestly don't even know why Cindy is even there other than to serve as Mike's sidekick. A lot of the employees are brought to tears by the way Mike treats them and if you do any basic research, he has a long history of treating his people like dirt.

I have worked for several news stations, some good, some bad. This is the worst. It has nothing to do with the quality of personnel, but morale is down, and for a reason. Management treats you like you are replaceable. That's a recipe for failure.

We should be encouraging people to be better, not discouraging them. That creates a domino effect.

Like any job, you get out of it what you put into it. This business is not for the week of heart. Mike is a good mentor and allowed me to have the opportunity to learn and move forward in my career goals.

An Overall Toxic Work Environment

I always felt that Mike never had my back. Moreover, Cindy, the assistant news director, and Mike, would intentionally create a hostile environment, turning co-workers against each other. It is very unfortunate because the people that work at KRDO are amazing, exceptional people. But the management is so poor, it's honestly not worth it.

Don't work here until the entire management team is replaced.
