Pros

Like-minded people, especially in arts and music. Everyone is welcoming and the work environment is not too bad. The benefits and perks are great.

Cons

Very high turnover ratio. One day you’re getting to know a new colleague, then the next day they’re gone without a word or explanation. A mass layoff recently occurred and affected the lives of 30+ people without a warning sign. This will affect the Los Angeles office as the morale of that location will continue to drop.

Thank you for taking the time to write and we are glad to hear that you benefited from the unique artistic and musical culture we’ve built. We are also happy that you’ve enjoyed our efforts in the past year to provide a benefits package that is highly attractive and above market. Over the past few months we’ve had to make conscious decisions based on our business strategy, and we recognise that the LA office has experienced some changes. We value your honesty and feedback, and maintain our commitment to integrating better communication and transparency based on this moving forward.

Pros

Super cool environment and amazing products that are easy to sell, cause who doesn't love music!

Cons

A lot of miscommunication and groupthink can make marketing projects spiral when they could have been more efficient by just meeting sooner.
