Pros

Great office vibe, amenities, locations and a with a wide variety of project types. You can pretty much find your niche within a number of studios. Good benefits but not that vastly different than other firms.

Cons

Lots of politics and can't trust leadership to really have employees' back as profit is main driver for all decision making. Very much "Game of Thrones" of firms. Get everything in writing before joining!
