Pros

You get to work with smart people. Great pay and benefits.

Cons

No room for advancement. They dont believe in promotion. A whole bunch of new management was hire to manage people who help take the company where it is. Old employees are leaving and 2 or 3 are hired to replace each one. What a pity!

Pros

I am an artist and I get to do an art-related job. The schedule is flexible when things pop up. I get health insurance and 401k and a lot of free food, and there is free gym access in the office building. The people I work with are all generally very cool, friendly, and/or fun to work with.

Cons

The pay rate is below the industry standard for production artists. I am not able to afford a place of my own. I live with my parents and I work another job to supplement my income. I am basically surviving and able to pay all my bills, but I would not be able to live a full life on my own with the pay rate as it is now. The work culture portrays itself as progressive and inclusive place but it is the typical corporate toxic environment.
