Crunchyroll reviews

Not a good place to work anymore. The new Funimation leadership is a group of incompetent non-professional friends who foster favoritism and “do-as-I-said” mentality. They don’t care about people and have no skills, knowledge, and experience in working with people. The worst part is that they think they are clever and smart. They don’t want to listen, grow and learn new things. The leadership has fired a lot of smart people who were with Crunchyroll for many years and had a lot of knowledge. They put on those positions their friends - newbies with no experience or expertise. There is zero transparency. In meetings or 1:1 you would always hear that you are doing great and after several days, they would fire you.

Funimation "leadership" creates a toxic environment based on extreme dictatorship principles. No one is allowed to speak. Anonymous Q&A is no longer a thing during All Staff meetings and everyone asking valid questions to leadership is being closely monitored and fired. After the recent layoff of ~80 people, "leadership" could not even provide justification to people why the layoff is taking place. Managers have not been aware and one day some managers even lost all of the team members, remaining a single person in the department. Everyone is afraid to speak now and fear culture is working. No transparency, and no career opportunities, this place is cursed. Sony does nothing (at least now) and unclear whether they even know what is happening inside Crunchyroll.
