Pros

Because the platform is all about pop culture it made ideating organic marketing content fun and you could really press the envelope on pitches. At the time there was no micromanaging from my team director.

Cons

Isolating and uncomfortable culture within the office and among the strategist and account executive sales team. There were a lot of cliques quickly formed with no effort to be inclusive to all team members. A lot of large team upheavals with little to no transparency. No guidance or training for new team members Poor communication between sales and brand strategy. Very long and arduous interview process (the final in-person interview was a homework assignment and three hours long).

Pros

I loved working with the team as a mixing engineer for music production. Everyone was so creative and fun to work with. I was also a sound designer for various projects within the company. Very flexible and cool people.

Cons

I honestly can't think of anything I didn't like about working with them.

Pros

Fandom is the most welcoming and accepting place I've ever worked. Every person I've seen join has been welcomed in and really brought into the Fandom community. As a community-driven website Fandom makes efforts to listen to the fans and proceed accordingly. I feel like I can have big ideas at Fandom that may actually be done.

Cons

Lacking a real sense of direction. Lots of great departments doing great work, but the throughline gets lost sometimes. Depending on your role you can be exposed more or less to the raw internet and upset users.
