Lack-luster Company - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Lion Forge

Lots of creative people and projects, with a diverse angle.

Some confusion in management structure--could use some tuning.

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

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.
