WJBK

Great station to work at if you are a photog/Editor. I have worked for several nightmare station but WJBK FOX 2 news is a breathe of fresh air. We have a staff of about 30 plus full time photojournalist/ Editors and about 4 Per Diem photogs/ editors. This is a union shop so everything goes by seniority ( Shift pick Vacation time for major holidays).
Most folks that work at this station are from the area . There is no room to move up in terms of being a Chief Photographer we don't have one. I can truly say in the 15 years I been in the news business this is the best job that I have held. None of that foolishness that most people deal with on the regular basis. No yelling reporters or management. A very calm respectful work environment. Some people may complain that work here but they have never worked anywhere else they have been here all of their career. They haven't worked in sweat shops that pay just enough for you to get to work the next week. If you get a freelance job here the pay is 29.00 per hour and top pay is 34.83 an hour. You make about 72k a year with no overtime.
