Pros
great co-workers, creative environment and opportunities for growth. I have been fortunate to have been with the company from the very beginning. I come with many years of production experience as well as corporate. Startup culture was new but i am very aware of work ethic, job performance and self-advocacy. I have grown in the company over the 3.5 years and have witness a lot of transition, pivoting and adjustment to the business due to COVID and opening new studios. Working with a team that is open to vulnerability and self awareness if only found if you offer that back and i am grateful for many of those i work with day to day that share this. Leadership is very transparent on the state of the business. I am seen and when i do not feel seen or heard i advocate for myself, I have done a lot of work for myself and i find opportunities to support my team i which always teaches me more about how i can grow. I have had very candid conversations with my team and manager and it has caused for good change. I believe you dress for the job you want and i am grateful for my growth and success in my career here, i can say i have put in the work and earned it based on my accomplishments, it was never just handed to me and i appreciate that. We also have a mental health benefit for therapy compensation opportunities which is a huge blessing and i encourage all take advantage of this.
Cons
fast moving train can sometimes cause loss sight of issues. sometimes things "need to be done" without a mindful assessment of the possible effects, not so much cons, but more so feedback. There have been times and seasons that were harder than others but this is the ebb and flow of a new and growing business. It is easy to complain, tho there is validity in any argument, i can say that i do not think these concerns are fully ignored. this company is filled with humans all trying to do the best they can. I have the perspective that if you want to be treated a certain way, you need to also treat others that way. issues with management, i can say are valid to a point and we need to be better at listening, but i truly believe that leadership does care and is trying to be better, tho i do think a lot of people feel more comfortable speaking anonymously on a review vs. having an honest and true conversation with people they have the issues with, in which that is also something we need to be better at developing in our teams.
