Pros

This is a great company for those looking for a foot in the door in the industry. You can start here as a junior and get numerous opportunities so much faster here than at any other studio I've been at. The people are great to work with and the middle management positions really care about you and your career.

Cons

Senior management is disconnected; no bonus structure; lack of industry knowledge for those senior managers. The boys club that others have referenced does exist and you will feel it if you start advancing higher in your career here. They are very protective of what they view as "theirs" and are skeptical of adding others to the fold.

Pros

Reel FX offers a range of roles from getting your foot in the door to the industry to working with directors creating feature film animations. While I was there, everyone I worked with were the most wonderful and talented people I’ve ever met.

Cons

I don’t contribute this to Reel FX, but the industry as a whole is pretty volatile
