Lee Enterprises CEO and Leadership

I didn't like anything about working at Lee. They came in, stripped my entire department down from 6 employees to 2 and then tried to make me and the only other employee pick up the slack. Horrible management. They don't care about their employees or product. They only care about purchasing local newspapers and squeezing as much profit out of them as possible.

There's nothing about Lee that is good. Horrible management, horrible benefits, profit at the expense of it's employees.

I don't have one. Their benefits are almost non-existent.

I like helping the small to mid size businesses in our community grow and prosper.

When they introduce a new corporate initiative and have forgotten about it 6 months later and moved on to a different one.

Being able to work from home when I need to.

I liked the people, well MOST of the people. There were quite a few bad eggs.

Year after year the company skimped on costs. There were many "early retirements", unfilled positions after people would resign. I did not like my manager at the time, he was a poor manager, avoided conflict.

They used to give away tickets to local events, that was cool. UNTIL they stipulated that only subscribers to the paper could enter the contest. That was LAME and SUCKED ASS. There were no other benefits. The health care premiums were high with high deductibles, nothing special or competitive there.
