Great team lunches, at least? - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Cortina Productions

Wonderfully diverse work. Great people to work with.

Hi stress, very fast-paced, long hours.

You will work some of the greatest experts in their field at Cortina. Almost everyone is not only extremely well-trained, but incredibly hard-working. Moreover, they are a fun group of people. I have never enjoyed working with a group of people more than I did at Cortina (which works out great since every single project is a group effort). The product that this company produces is second to none. High quality stuff. Although it takes a good deal of work to create, you will be damn proud of the final product when its all said and done. The office is in a great location in McLean, right next to Tyson's and the new Silver line. The office itself is incredibly modernized, equipped with the latest gadgets and nicest hardware.

The hours can be very long with some projects. Just like any other business, Cortina operates under the mantra that "Client comes first". This means that if the client requests a big change on Friday afternoon, you're going to be working on the weekend. In fact, you will almost always see someone in the office on a Saturday. Just like any other production job, demand can vary. Some people are brought on exclusively for one project, and if the company doesn't have the work to support them on future projects, they will let them go. It's simply the nature of the beast, and just requires employees to try to make themselves as indispensable as possible.
