Since a lot
of the work done at Katz Direct requires communication and a cohesive work
environment, there cubicle walls were specifically built to be lower to allow
this interaction and sense of community to occur. Though the constant murmur of
chatting can become distracting at times, the low walls ultimately help with
productivity. People are able to ask each other questions about the work
assignments and it winds up relieving of the monotony that often corresponds
with a cubicle/office environment. If I were CEO there are a few things I would
change about the office set-up. Every level of employee that works at Katz
Direct are on the same floor of the building, but I actually did not find out
who was whose boss until the last day. Regardless, everyone was treated with an
equivalent respect. The company could maybe benefit by closer interaction with
the television stations (advertisement buyers). The only current interaction is
through e-mail and the Excel/DDS system, which can actually sometimes get
passive aggressive. Also, as far as the internship went, I felt as though I would
often spend a lot of time with no work to do. I would have been happy to have
taken on more responsibility and I’m sure the company could have used an extra
hand in some areas.
