Business Outlook

Pros

Netflix Animation was a terrific studio to work at with great people and accommodating remote work and WFH policies.

Cons

Unfortunately many people were laid off during my time there with numerous projects being canceled out of the blue. Employee retention is poor following the boom and bust of the COVID hiring spree, and the company seems eager to pursue outsourcing and AI.

Cons

No accountability in leadership. Some people who have been around over 10 years have grown into Director level, but they have no talent and experience as a leader.
