      Great coworkers. Leadership needs work.

      Pros

      - Peers I worked with were passionate about the intersection between tech and anime, and we built amazing things during my time there. - Startup culture where you can get a lot done if you're good with barebones AWS and can navigate the politics. - Decent pay

      Cons

      Leadership is either intentionally or unintentionally killing the culture. - They create top-down initiatives that "sound good" but in reality are low-impact at best or downright harmful to the anime community at worst. - Lack of career development. Felt like they cared more about deliverables than my personal development. Especially over the past 9 months, and it's getting worse.

      Thank you so much for your 4-star rating. We appreciate your balanced review and thoughtful feedback. The layoffs that occurred earlier this year as a result of the acquisition were a difficult experience for all, but our hope is that we can now move forward in pursuit of our goals. We're glad to hear you enjoy the friendly team atmosphere and will raise your feedback about the speed of engineering releases with our senior leadership team. You can also raise future feedback to leadership directly via the open Q & A portion of our monthly All Staff meetings.
