soona reviews

One year ago, we hired a number of salaried employees due to growing demand from our clients. We now recognize that they needed more training than some of our more seasoned production creatives. We worked to correct this situation in 2022 and now have 6+ days of intensive training for new full-time creative crew members with stepped ramp up for the role. We also continue to update our job descriptions and interview process to ensure clarity of expectations. Professional production is a hard field that requires intense work.That’s why we continue to be open to feedback and are routinely making changes to our production roles and requirements. Throughout the entire company, those with salaried positions often work more than 8 hour days. As a startup, we do our best to be honest about this and have never intended to represent otherwise. Instead, we seek fairness. We offer creatives full-time salaried positions (and part-time hourly) with strong benefits (health, dental, vision, 401K, unlimited PTO, college debt repayment, family leave and more), monthly performance incentives and a career ladder with growth opportunities that lead to roles exceeding $90K. We are proud of the creative staff who have grown to these levels, as well as moved to new roles in other departments. soona also completes competitive marketplace analysis once per year to ensure we are within the market range for all our roles. We will continue to work hard to create a long-term business that provides more opportunities, growth, skill development and a positive place to work (and yes, work hard too) for our entire creative crew.
