Pros
- They somehow lucked into hiring some really fantastic, talented people—although most of them have left by now.
- Nice office space
Truly cannot think of any beyond that . This place is a nightmare. I will note that I personally witnessed (and actually received requests from) HR, asking employees to write positive reviews for Glassdoor. So take the glowing ones with a grain of salt.
Cons
- Extremely unprofessional work environment. CEO thinks that all employees are his own personal assistants and frequently hands down work that is personal in nature. In addition, CEO has severe anger management issues. Known to curse out employees so loudly the entire floor can hear. Has outbursts on set as well, resulting in a very poor reputation with former clients (and shrinking business over time).
- Absolutely no mentorship. It's a sink or swim environment, which very little guidance or direction on how to reach the next level in your career. They'll conveniently only bring up all the things you've supposedly done wrong at your annual review, just so they can deny you a raise.
- Work/life balance is abysmal due to understaffing and overpromising to clients. Certain members of team work insanely long hours—leaving past 10 PM is not unusual.
- Zero organization. Upper management doesn't let people just do their job—they jump in and meddle, change things before delivering to client (with zero heads up to the team), and just generally play all these games that keep you insecure about your job performance, confused about your own projects, and guessing what could possibly be next every day.
