Pros

Beautiful Campus, Talented Artists mostly. Complimentary breakfast, lunch and snacks.

Cons

Like so many other companies and studios now days it is FAT with useless, incompetent middle and upper management and artistic Leadership who have little if any knowledge of the actual day to day workings or the endless financial waist on unnecessary bells and whistles that bleed that company coffers and bloat film costs at the expense of the actual workers and story quality.
