Vantaggi
- Honestly? None left. Breakfast club used to be the best perk, until they cut it to save money on croissants.
- You’ll become very resilient. Trauma does that.
Svantaggi
- ALL THE "GOOD" REVIEWS ON THIS PAGE WERE SOLICITED BY HR AND WERE EITHER PROOFREAD OR REWRITTEN PRIOR TO BEING POSTED.
- fear driven environment
- senior management have no integrity
- asking questions? You’ll be shushed like a child.
- You're given a narrow time period window throughout the day to ask them, then reprimanded for any misunderstandings or delayed responses.
- If you do something good, it's their win. God help you if something doesn't go to plan, it's your fault and you will pay the price.
- recent financial burden led to half the company being made redundant.
-We are now a skeleton crew, managing the same amount of work and relying on offshore help in order to get the job done.
- expect to be shuffled between studios to clean up disorganised projects.
- there’s no department structure in NY, and a culture of blameshifting ensures accountability is always someone else’s problem, I suffered this as a freelancer before becoming full time
- nothing is ever good enough for the company.
- embarrassingly poor leadership on all levels
- speaking up is treated as a nuisance rather than a necessity.
- refer to employees as 'resource', no empathy
- outdated/old school ways of working, not able or willing to modernise
- company is running into financial difficulty.
- severely understaffed, with overtime treated as a given, never compensated, acknowledged, or appreciated.
- VFX teams have stayed overnight in the studio under crushing pressure caused by producers constantly overpromising to clients.
- team members are promoted based on time served and not ability/competence (if promoted at all)
-There are no work life boundaries: time off is routinely interrupted by non-urgent messages, and failure to respond immediately results in pressure or passive aggressive follow ups
- a new financial system implemented by incompetent HR that don't know how to use it
- HR and pay issues are handled inconsistently and often poorly.
- They renovated the office, then realised they couldn’t afford it. That says it all.
