Pros

As an artist myself, I am fortunate to work for a creative technology company. The products we make are an integral part of my life. The people at Avid complete the picture since they are equally passionate and we obviously have common interests. Their experience and intelligence inspires me to grow and learn. Salary and benefits are good and I feel more than fairly compensated for the work I do. I'm grateful to have the opportunity to work at Avid.

Cons

Avid has obviously been through a lot of change, and it's understandable that many reviews here are negative based on some of the tough decisions being made. It underlines how passionate our employees are. Job security is a concern, but we are not unique there. I think we've been spoiled for many years and are having a tough time now that reality has arrived. Maybe some of that should be put on previous leadership instead of the guy trying to fix it...

Pros

• Some coworkers try to support each other despite the environment • You quickly learn how to handle stress (whether you want to or not)

Cons

• Toxic and reactive management style • Constantly shifting expectations with little to no clear direction • Unrealistic workload with pressure to meet metrics that don’t reflect reality • Lack of accountability from leadership—issues are pushed down instead of addressed • Poor communication across the board, leading to confusion and wasted time • Employees are not supported • Burnout is common and ignored
