Cutting jobs, cutting corners - Production Employee Cutting Edge Employee Review

The fish rots from the head. This company is a mess, fuelled by overworked and underpaid artists and producers under the command of of a man who’s approval of work has no consideration for timelines and budgets. Management are the ones who only appear when there is bad news, but when the entire team sheds blood sweat and tears we don’t hear a peep from them. Communication is a massive problem both internally and externally. There’s a strong blame culture when things start to go wrong, for example, project timelines are often undercooked - the key operational management is often too busy to discuss this with the client (matched with a greedy hunger for work) so dozens of projects are suddenly in the door and instantly post supervisors become unhappy due to the fact that the work is simply not feasible. The finger is pointed at the producers and artists, for these delays and not back and themselves. We are just making pretend here people. Stay away from Cutting Edge if it’s the last thing you do.
