The “cool factor” isn’t worth the headache unless you’re inexperienced
Pros
Great people to work with - Most people there are incredibly talented. Lots of the work that comes out of this company has won awards in the past (keyword PAST).
Cons
Horrible management - I cant stress this enough. 90% of the managers are inept at the actual people management part of the job, therefore turnover is high (for the past several months we’d receive farewell emails from multiple people per week), and morale is low. They ply you with alcohol at every turn, so you can forget about the nepotism, eurocentrism, hostile work envoronment (yup), and unrealistic expectations. Technicolor’s acquisition has stifled The Mill’s creativity, warped their vision, and stomped out employees’ hunger for innovation. And the last round of layoffs in April 2019? Bloodbath. There are much healthier places to work, which will pay you what you’re worth.
