Pros

- Some of the company has WFH - What's left of those who haven't been laid off are solid folk at the manager level and lower. - Top Entertainment Companies and Leaders still use the products this company produces.

Cons

- Poor Senior Leadership, SVPs, and Directors, many of them seem out of there depth. - The employees who have not yet been laid off are being overworked to death, taking on multiple full job roles of individuals who have been laid off due to poor decision-making. - Poor work-life balance (expected to work 12-hour days and be available on an on-call basis). - No raises (performance or cost of living) and no bonuses this year, the first time in years this has happened. - No idea why individuals are being laid off other than as a cost-saving exercise.

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
