What do you like about working at Lee Enterprises?

"My lead Online Specialist is such a delight to work with. I couldn't have asked for a better co-worker. His enthusiasm keeps me motivated! My company believes in me as an artist and allowed me to design the annual magazine by myself after I hadn't even been working there a whole year. Each month, I learn more about design and my work improves."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"If you do not know how to use Quark, do not look online for the tutorial. The tutorial online is for the latest version, which is not the version we have."

What don't you like about working at Lee Enterprises?

"I don't like working with Sales Reps who are procrastinators. They wait until last minute to give me work that is due in an hour, then nit pick, making me make around five proofs, which prevents me from being able to get other necessary work done."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"When my supervisor needs to explain how to do certain tasks, she talks down to us employees instead of talking us through it."

Lee Enterprises Employee

"I worked for Lee Enterprises for 14 years at both the local newspaper and at corporate. My time there was fairly positive. The company does a decent job at promoting within. With the current situation of the newspaper industry as a whole, entering any of these media companies would carry a least a slight risk in my opinion."
