Pros

+ Top tier Feature and HETV projects with industry leading studios (Disney, Fox, Netflix, Amazon, Apple TV etc.) + Absolutely rock solid pipeline + Most staff generally incredibly personable people who are good at their jobs and know their craft well + Great starter company as they are well known in the industry, but don’t hang around; get your chops and GTFO!!!

Cons

- Incredibly low pay for London; almost completely untenable - Pay rises are not standard procedure; have to really fight for them - Poor work/life balance - Minimal support in professional/personal development - Pale, Male and Stale; senior management are typically old white men stuck in the 20th Century. Very old fashioned way of managing. - Don’t value loyalty - No HR department - Absolutely ZERO employee benefits - Often put the needs of the very demanding clients over the needs of its employees

Pros

- Open and friendly staff - Sit in on projects being worked on - (Sometimes) Opportunities to meet and discuss projects being worked on

Cons

- Too often the Client Service duties get in the way of the educational part - Lack of proper compensation ($20 a day is way too little for the amount of work we do sometimes)
