Vantaggi

They have good benefits, including 401K, medical, dental, etc., plus free food, DVDs, gifts and celebrations.
Svantaggi
One of the worst downsides of being at DWA is poor management communication. Company news often comes out to the public before employees know anything about it. Management also tends to make promises to staff regarding career development, working conditions, equipment, etc. that are not honored. Another huge downside is the limited and slow advancement opportunities due to the companies rigid hierarchy. Management tends to value tenure over ability, experience and performance.
