Pros

- tons of freedom, treated like adults - amazing coworkers, all experts in their fields. everyone pulls their weight - open / honest feedback is given to each other regularly - exciting challenges, disrupting media/entertainment industry

Cons

- the level of ambiguity is not for everyone - you will see people you like let go because they weren't the right fit for their role. I've made peace... it creates an environment where everyone is exceptional and not resting on their laurels. digging into why it happened dozens of times, I've always agreed with the managers decision when I have all the facts.

Cons

I got hired on with a start date of December 4th, then on November 30th received an email telling me they were going with others more qualified. Based on my experience they probably overhired and then decided too late to cancel the training class. I hope not too many people turned down other jobs to work here only to hear they were no longer needed.
