Pros

I've worked Gener8 for almost 2 years now in the same department. I've seen people come and go, and projects rise and fall. I've worked with some amazing people, and a few not so great here and there. However, Prime Focus just bought Gener8 a few months ago and it has been a complete disaster. They promised us things wouldn't change. They did. The first month they let 50 people go that they had JUST hired. They replaced all the HR and Recruiting staff, who were some of the best I'd ever worked with. The projects we get to work on are pretty awesome I'll admit, but most of the workload now gets sent to India (Prime Focus), and we basically check their work now and tell them the quality is terrible, and fix it for them.

Cons

People leaving like crazy lately. All the smart/good artists are finding elsewhere to spend their time. Somewhere they are appreciated.

Pros

Had an excellent supervisor/manager for my department Overall okay experience They try to improve company culture with group fitness, massages and food trucks but it was too little and too late

Cons

Upper management have serious problems Long hours of work for minimal compensation Weekly rate instead of hourly rate so no matter how many hours and OT you have to work, you get paid the same
