Pros

The internship program is very organized and helpful for the interns to get to know about the company and the industry. We got to speak with diverse kind of Dreamworks employees as well as the CEO of the company. The food is great and they give you breakfast and lunch.

Cons

If I had to say something about the downside.. the employees would appreciate some more tables and chairs outside of the commissary. I loved eating outside because of the beautiful weather, but it was difficult to find a table.

Mostly very good

Pros

Good location, good perks, pay is OK, benefits are good.

Cons

Little upward mobility, mainly because nobody leaves. The cross-studio workflows are a real hindrance to getting things done efficiently so there's a bit of frustration involved in anything of that nature. They try to make things cheaper by outsourcing but the work is done to a lower standard and requires more iterations, and hence, more back and forth than if it were just done here.
