Pros

The best in the business.

Cons

You are literally working 24/7. It doesn't matter even if you are hospitalised. And terrible pay. Don't invest more than 2 years of your life here.

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.
