Vantaggi

Friendly and hard-working coworkers at the lower and middle level who are dedicated to their industry, craft, and developing further expertise, and clearly love what they do. Company works at maintaining a positive public profile.

Svantaggi

Lack of understanding at the management level of how some of the industries they have branched into function. Caution is advised before accepting a full-time position here, as they overextend into exciting new projects that bolster the company image and that require additional staff, but then—at a change in plan or lack of continued interest at the top—have been known for periodic individual firings and wider layoffs. It’s a calculated risk to work here, so go in with eyes open.

Vantaggi

The editorial team was (and still tries to be) dedicated to publishing high-quality titles, though it was decimated by substantial layoffs.

Svantaggi

Lion Forge’s company motto of “comics for everyone” is a good goal in theory, but unfortunately, the founder and cofounder of the company do not know how to run a business to make that goal a success. Their inability to manage employees, set achievable budgets, and have realistic expectations for a startup publishing company are affecting the current culture and the future longevity of the company. Toxicity and low morale are regularly being injected into the company through rounds of layoffs and random firings. How downsizing is handled says a lot about the leadership of a company, and it is widely known across the company that downsized employees are not treated with any dignity or respect, destroying trust for all the remaining employees. Employees who were forced to uproot and move to St. Louis, MO, for their positions have been downsized, some less than 6 months after being hired.
