6 vs Half Dozen
production (Former Employee) – Silver Spring, MD – April 20, 2017
There is always a plus and minus so you have to make it on your own. Senior management sucks, I enjoy my co-workers, work culture can be tricky at times. Mind your business don't gossip or you will become the gossip. Be original in your thought and programming.
Pros
Listeners are great, days are short and fun, company has recognizable name
Cons
No money or advancement, managers are old school
Fun and Fast moving enviroment
On-Air Personality (Former Employee) – Cleveland, OH – May 21, 2018
I love Radio One the atmosphere was very positive and exciting everyday. There was many opportunities to move up in the company. I learned a lot in the 4 years I have work there.
Fun Work Environment
Promotions Assistant (Current Employee) – Houston, TX – May 14, 2018
Really love this job, but its easy to outgrow when there are few chances to advance. It gave me the opportunity to learn many new skills. Everyone gets along well, although the departments dont interact together very often.
It was an interesting 15 years
Integrated Media Specialist (Former Employee) – Houston, TX – May 14, 2018
Overall, Radio-One was a good place to work for. When sales declined, they did not have a plan in place nor the right management to deal with the process of getting sales back up
Radio Forever!

Summary
Board operator/ Producer/ Production (Former Employee) – Detroit, MI – April 1, 2018
Go into work with a mindset of getting your job done, but make sure you are bettering yourself everyday. You have to balance what you do for the company with what you and doing for yourself. Make sure you take care of the platform, but use to the platform in positive way to benefit yourself as well. All in all it can be a great company to work for and you will learn a lot.
Fun times
TRAFFIC AND CONTINUITY MANAGER (Former Employee) – Boston, MA – March 27, 2018
Working for a Radio Station was something very different for me. I truly enjoyed the people I worked with
the hours varied due to all the staff would help with radio events and other thing.

Project Leader (Current Employee) – Atlanta, GA – March 6, 2018
The company was great and has perks but it is not the place to work if you want to advance in your career. They do not pay fairly and do not promote from within. The benefits are okay but management needs improvement and they need to learn to value their employees.
Toxic and Hostile work envornment
Integrated Media Specialist (Former Employee) – Indianapolis, IN – March 5, 2018
Radio One, Indianapolis is an extremely toxic and hostile environment, Employees are constantly harassed and ridiculed. It is not an organization that I would recommend to any professional.
Pros
Nothing positive
Cons
too many to detail
Fun-Family Style Environment Focused on Winning
Accountant (Current Employee) – Houston, TX – January 22, 2018
The work place is not only inviting but filled with dedicated individuals who are determined to win and make the overall organization profitable and successful. I acquired not only professional skills but life skills on time management as well as conflict management. The organization as a whole takes care of their people but also strive and push them for greatness.
Productive and fun workplace. Met different stars regularly

I'v learn a lot working in Marketing and Sales. The hardest part was knowing advancement was very difficult to obtain in the position I had as National Sales Coordinator.
Fun place to work

Human Resources - Executive Assistant (Contractor) (Former Employee) – Washington, DC – August 30, 2017
I loved working with the ladies in the Human Resources Department they are very intelligent, funny and goal oriented women. I wish they had a permanent position for me.
Relaxed environment
Production Director, (Former Employee) – Silver Spring, MD – July 5, 2017
One must accept full responsibility for work.
The hours to accomplish jobs that are essential will require one to forego outside activities.
Holidays are not always off.
