happy - Sales dSonic Employee Review

- You will get to work on a big game or two. Yay Explosions.

Absolutely everything else. The people who run this company have absolutely ZERO respect for their employees. They are cheap beyond reason. Want to work for dSOnic? Get used to plastic desks, outdated computers, working with headphones for 8 hours a day, horrible software, strict 8am start times. Oh also, unlivable wages, no benefits, no hope for a raise, no hope for promotion, just you at a desk churning out sounds for almost free forever. Also being sent home without pay for a sniffle... Did I mention you'll be doing sounds design with headphones for 8 hours a day? For $ The only reason this company continues to exist is because of it's close proximity to Berklee and other schools. They survive by farming interns and turning them into contract workers and booting them if they show any discontent at all. Don't like $10 an hour? Well there's 20 kids about to graduate who will do anything to get a job relating to audio, so suck it. No, dSonic. YOU suck it.

1)Great co-workers 2)Great place to pick up your sound design chops (especially if you're a beginner) 3)Get to work on games, a good variety ranging from AAA+ to Mobile games

1)8 hour headphone days, extremely fatiguing when you have to deal with explosions all day... 2)Non-flexible working hours, 8am start times, extremely bad choice for a start time considering this is a highly creative job and most workers come in extremely wearied 3)No respect shown to employees, treated strictly as sound generating machines... 4)No way of moving up the promotion ladder 5)Bad pay, with little or no hope for a raise 6)Employer's stinginess and ignorance about upgrading technology,
