Don't be fooled by "Positive" Reviews

Anonymous employee

Pros

There are some good, positive people. They do offer some fun events, if you aren't too busy to attend. Benefits and Holidays are competitive. There is potential to be an awesome company. Some departments seem like they have it pretty good.

Cons

Where to begin: don't be fooled by the Positive reviews written by HR and upper management. You aren't fooling anyone. You are hired with rose colored glasses with everyone on their best behavior faking how happy they are working here. After a few months the glasses come off and you see there is a repressive cloud of negativity, horrible morale and constant rumors of layoffs and downsizing. People don't interact. Everyone works in their silos with no knowledge sharing. You realize months after working on a project that multiple teams were working on the same project with no resolution. You can be the smartest, brightest, most dedicated hard working individual and you will never get ahead. There is no vision. Management are constantly having ego battles and low level employees become scapegoats for continually failing to hit growth levels. They frown on working remotely as big brother can't keep his eye on you and make sure you clock in on time. You would think a media company would be forward thinking and they will give lip service that they are, but when it comes down to it, the culture is more akin to a 90s totalitarian office.

High Turnover Rate & Heavy Employee Favoritism

Anonymous employee

Pros

Great PTO and benefits package, entry-level team members have phenomenal camaraderie

Cons

The turnover rate here is ridiculous. There is heavy favoritism towards sales personnel here and it's very obvious. And, if by chance, you're not clicking with these favored employees, you'll be fired. Sellers get all the attention and recognition - CMs, Integrated Marketing, and Planners are doing the bulk of the work, but receive none of that recognition. Please beware of this employer. They're extremely quick to lay people off and pick favorites. You can be a contributing member but still get the boot. I strongly advise you to look elsewhere.

How you treat people matters!

Pros

Generous PTO policy, good benefits. Fun company sponsored events.

Cons

Executives are arrogant and don't respect what expertise their employees have. Turnover in 2015 more than 50%, of that about half quit and the other half gets fired. Two classes of people at SK: execs, sale reps and marketing reps are treates like royalty, every one else works like a dog.
