Media General Employer Reviews

Workdays were very busy with it being a newsroom, but very enjoyable with each day being different. Working for a newspaper, you meet a wide variety of people and learn many different things, which is excellent. Unfortunately management, I feel was the hardest to contend with on a day to day basis, and was not very employee orientated, which caused – more...  a morall downfall in the office. That, I felt was the hardest part of what was otherwise a very enjoyable job, with hard working, funny and loyal co-workers. I loved my work, and found the variety very enjoyable, especially when going out in the field and writing stories, and meeting so many different people. – less

Overall I love working for this company. I hate the thought of leaving but due to financial reasons I am having to look at some different options. This company is very family oriented and is like working with a family.
Each day I get to work with some amazing customers customizing exactly what ad packages will work for their business and help grow their – more...  business. I have been able to learn different sales techniques with this being a different sales avenue rather than cell phones and service.
The hardest part of my job has been the economy and overcoming that challenge. Coming from a small town most of my customers don't have a huge advertising budget so trying to meet their needs and my goals is a huge challenge. – less

One of the best companies to work for. Team atmosphere and training available.

Same description as Viamedia. I worked for TCI for five years until it was taken over by ATT, AOL and then Time Warner within a months time.

Media General was just starting to add advertising partnerships with great name recognition, national reach, and strong technical systems.

Laid off twice nwith this company. They do support and encourage you. Family environment, christmas parties, etc.
