Pros

- Get to work in a fun industry, with cutting-edge technology (haptics in movies and games). - Great work/life balance but still with aggressive objectives. - Composed of great, passionate and collaborative human beings. - Decent amount of career opportunities for an SMB. - Everyone can have a big impact on outcomes (even interns). - High level of flexibility.

Cons

- Decent effort on compensation but benefits could be improved as a whole. - In certain departments, high expectation of versatility which could become overwhelming for some.

Pros

Free food often, very (too) laid back environment, company field trips (legitimately fun too), decent pay/hours.

Cons

Here's why I have a problem with these guys... - Terrible management. The work flow these people use is just so inefficient... They only gave me good feedback and told me I was doing an excellent job which is why I was shocked when they let me go suddenly. I can recall multiple separate occasions where either my manager or co-workers picked apart my work in detail because they were impressed. They had all these things that had never been brought up in the 4 months I had worked there. Nobody communicated with each other... the amount of arguments I saw because for example a guy's desk got moved and nobody even told him about it until he walked in... straight up avoidable situations a good 9 out of 10 times. - Outdated everything. For a company who likes to put on a good face at events and flex to its bigger hollywood partners they really should invest within rather than just keep trying to fake it until they make it. What I mean by this is when I worked there, the computers would crash like 1-3 times a week and we'd always have to move whole setups around because they couldn't get their act together. - Aggressive favoritism of certain employees....which gets SUPER old. Plus I was fighting an uphill battle from day 1 because they said they "don't like electronic music people" (my sound engineering background). The guy who would leave trash and apple cores all over his office never got a word said to him... and the dude who would sleep on the job I guess the company policy was "dont ask dont tell" with him (but only him). List is endless with that stuff. - Worst part is the backwards way of working in Pro Tools they have transfers to ZERO other companies.... hard to explain why but if you saw the process it would also have you scratching your head. Last but not least, the high turnover rate reinforces everything you just read.

Pros

This Company has a relaxed work environment. Often times work can be engaging and interesting. Hourly rates are low but, they offer a competitive benefits package.

Cons

Employees are seen as easily replaceable and it's blatantly obvious and evident when you look at the turnover rate. Work flow is extremely outdated, which causes employees to work in ways that are extremely inefficient.
