Pros

The perks are great and include: free access to the onsite gym, movie screenings, and Christmas week off. The pay and bonus are also good, but is dependent on how well the studio as a whole does.

Cons

Layoffs have been occurring every year that I have been here, and due to the layoffs, career progression can be stalled. Also, most of the lower level employees are just here to collect a paycheck. In addition, a lot of the groups are very toxic because of its egotistic VP.

Pros

- began work with an amazing team and culture - exposure to major IP and high-profile campaigns - some genuinely talented and passionate colleagues - fast-paced environment that builds skills quickly - healthcare is decent - some fun on-lot perks

Cons

- poor work/life balance exceptions from SPTV lower and upper management - unmanageable workload left little room for the collaboration and meeting engagement leadership expected - upper management changes resulted in reactive restructuring with little regard for team culture or continuity - inconsistent management: some leaders failed to empower or advocate for their teams - clear office politics which interfere with business decisions - quick burnout when management fails to course-correct workload - leadership set workloads based on personal work style rather than sustainable team norms - little to no growth opportunities - 4 days in office is excessive and unnecessary
