Meow Wolf is a corporation, and only a corporation.
Pros
Brilliant, creative minds walk the halls. Most talented group of artists around. Can bring dogs to work. Lots of snacks. Competitive pay.
Cons
You will be worked to the bone if you allow it. There is no regard for morale, only deadlines. Prepare for 60-70 hour work weeks, even moreso now that half the company is gone. Its common knowledge that the company lied to 250+ employees about the mass layoffs in early 2020. The layoffs were not a result of CoVID19, they were planned since 2019 and were a condition of the outside investors injecting funds into the company. New execs were brought in during the summer and their contact lists were milked for outsourcing leads. The "founders and CEOs" decided to pull the trigger on the plan early and blamed CoVID19's closing of the exhibit. Now the entirety of Meow Wolf art is almost completely outsourced to third-party construction firms. The CEOs have absolutely no clue about the importance of the artists within and are focused entirely on profit. Thus the entire foundation of the Meow Wolf vision has been reversed to become another generic themed entertainment chain. There are no opportunities for advancement. Your job will either be eliminated or you quit. HR complaints are dealt with in hostile, flippant manner by execs.
