Pros

Incredible, brilliant, creative and hardworking co workers. Do the best they can with the mere offerings they get given Wide variety of projects to work on Open to ideas and creative input encouraged Felt like a family, have nothing but praise for the Studio and all the people there Freebies if you're into cheap plastic garbage

Cons

Constant changes being requested from HQ, some often last minute HQ never seemed to understand how an animation production is run, never even tried. Mixed direction from HQ, communication was awful at times. HQ does not care about their employees, even as they laid off their staff, never showed an ounce of compassion.

Pros

The team you get to work with and grow with is the best part of the job. If you’re into the product, the employee discount is solid I suppose.

Cons

Near zero chance for career growth with this company, within the retail store itself or moving up to corporate. The company has been subject to frequent layoffs and “restructuring”. The retail store has had three different general managers (so far). There are associates that have been part time for years, yet working full time hours, receiving no benefits. The retail store doesn’t utilize its workers properly. Good, solid workers have jumped ship completely due to burnout, being stepped on, management refusing to correct toxic workplace behavior, and selective coaching. You’re promised the opportunity to grow, but denied the development to make that a reality.
