Pros

Everyone cares about books, the company mission, and each other. Colleagues are absolutely wonderful.

Cons

The pay is terrible. No room for advancement. The merger is ongoing, so downsizing is unfortunately still happening in little spurts.

Pros

Great writing, Top tier production

Cons

The male director never asked me once how I was doing or offer any advice to calm my nerves (on my first production ever with them) which lead to a burdensome recording process.
