Has gotten progressively worse over the years - Anonymous employee WQED Multimedia Employee Review

Nicest people I've ever worked with Lots of creative freedom Opportunity to grow

Pay could be better but you'll have plenty of time for other projects if you choose to.

Everyone is very friendly and welcoming.

I went through three interviews, only to be let go after just 10 days because they felt I “couldn’t keep up” and “didn’t know enough about the company.” The problem was that I wasn’t given any training on essential tasks the way that they would prefer, but trial and error was not seen as a growing opportunity. I was told I should already know things, but also encouraged to ask as many questions as possible. This made it difficult to gauge which questions were appropriate, and ultimately, it felt like my efforts weren’t valued - again, after only 10 days.. Advice for management: Prior to letting an employee go, have conversations with them during their training period. Actually give them 30-60-90 day training or probationary periods. Also, avoid printing out emails that employees send and marking it up in red to criticize—this only undermines the employee's confidence. And finally, if you’re going to fire someone, don’t make them ask if they’ve been fired only for you to confirm it 10 minutes into the conversation. As the leadership of a multimedia communications company, clear and respectful communication should be a priority. As an HR professional, I would not recommend working here.
