Thanks for your feedback. We totally agree that team members are critical to the success of a company! Our intention is to create a fast-paced environment for over-achievers to grow and reach the next level quickly. We have learned that hiring people that are less experienced can be an uphill battle since the efforts required to get that person up to speed might make them feel micromanaged. It’s preferable to hire people that already have the experience in the specific position and just need a creative, collaborative environment where they can take their ideas to the next level.

Will not pay you for your time or work

Pros

They have a great office in the We Work building in downtown Santa Monica

Cons

They will not compensate you for your time or work in their "trial run" despite promising to do so in writing and word. They will ignore your request for payment after you've dedicated your time and work to their company. It's worse than having interns, they use people looking for jobs in order to get free work disguising it as a "trial run". They pick your brain for strategies and ideas without compensation.

This is posted by an individual who was not hired by StudioBinder. Should be posted under "Interview Reviews" vs "Employee Reviews." It's normal for job candidates to interview unpaid or take on trial projects. Re: the Work - As you can imagine, candidates have a limited understanding of our content requirements within minutes of meeting us, and as a result, most of the work provided during their trial run is rather unusable. We couldn't possible scale our content this way; a short look at the frequency of our articles and videos should make this clear. As far as "picking a candidate's brain for strategies," this is a common part most any company's interview process and allows us to evaluate the candidate's understanding of their potential job duties.
