Can be fun work at times, but company doesn't value employees enough - if at all - Reporter Canadian Traffic Network Employee Review

Pros

Ability to work on-air, make connections, most co workers are nice to work with. Depends which market you work in.

Cons

- Big disconnect between head office and reporters creates an 'ivory tower' sensibility. HR complaints are swept under the rug, and feedback is heard but nothing comes of it. Complaints are rarely addressed, and sometimes met with an "if they don't like it they can quit" attitude. - Not a good place for long-term growth. If you just want to get some quick experience it's actually not terrible, but the company counts on a quick turn-over rate. Corners are cut and jobs openings are absorbed. - Some of the equipment is top of the line, but studio and office spaces such as Vancouver and Toronto are sketchy at best.

Pros

Some nice people who are willing to collaborate

Cons

Management plays favourites and only sets up the favourites for success. Has no experience with what’s really happening in the market. Internal processes are archaic at best (next to using a fax machine). Rates for the product are too high and deters buyers because of this. And the fact TV is lumped into this mess makes it worse. There’s only so many times the poor stations can use the Suspendables to promote how awesome these placements are.
