Pros

Santa Fe is a wonderful place

Cons

Toxic culture. Dissent of any kind, whether about the company or about creative decisions, is actively discouraged if not attacked. You’re made to feel small and expendable. Abusive rhetoric like “you can’t do better than here” is routinely brought into play, and only a select few are given creative autonomy even though it’s promised to all.
