Pros

Frankly the main, and only reason, to work there is to work with the amazing IP. Really fantastic and deep pool of fiction. Also, since Marvel is on top, everyone wants to work with you and wants to PAY you to do this. Really like being in the catbird seat.

Cons

I worked there three years and was essentially fired/laid off due to a NY HQ EVP (political play). All power in this company resides in NY and there is a small group of Executives there that control the show...even with TV and Film. These Executives are not your friends and have no interest in your growth or happiness. You will be viewed as a 'means to an end'. I've seen quality and loyal (5-10 yrs for service) fired because of the NY cabal - not agreeing with their dictates. Oh, and don't expect any of those Disney perks at Marvel. Marvel is a notoriously cheap and frugal (even with their billions in profits) company. Again with the NY management team's perview...you should be happy you have a job.

Pros

If you’re a comic book enthusiast, this is an excellent place to work. The majority of the staff is incredibly friendly and talented.

Cons

After years of diligently avoiding office gossip, a substantial portion of it has come to light in recent years. This includes toxic behaviors, terrible attitudes, and individuals in high-up positions who are clearly not qualified for their roles.
