Pros

CR has a lot of unrealized opportunity, with many smart, talented people.

Cons

Some top, key ’leaders’ are out of their depth with poor records recognizing and supporting experienced decision-making.

Great Company, Lots of Change

Pros

Pay and benefits are great. The people you work with are genuinely incredible (I walked by the president in my first week and he knew my name. Crazy!) Lot’s of opportunities to make an impact. It certainly isn’t boring! There’s always something big to do but usually you can collaborate with other creative people. If you like fast, this is your place.

Cons

This is a con that could be a pro. Crunchyroll feels like a startup that is rapidly trying to grow up. Since the merger with Funimation, there’s been a ton of change as the business tries to get there and build scalable operations. The change is good, it needs to happen, but that might not be for everyone.

Pros

Crunchyroll has been an excellent environment for rapid learning, the encouragement I've received from both peers and leaders has been invaluable, especially this early on in my career. The welcoming culture and the many perks, including free lunches, an assortment of snacks available to us, unique offices, and the diligent efforts of the workplace team to recognize and celebrate all kinds of occasions/holidays for employees to enjoy, truly make me feel like I'm part of a fantastic company. Aside from the obvious benefits, I am confident in Crunchyroll's capacity for sustained growth and excited about playing a role (even if just a small one) in the expansion of anime on a global scale. I do really enjoy being a part of the organization and plan on growing here for the foreseeable future.

Cons

It's worth noting, and I don't believe this issue is unique to Crunchyroll, that there are sometimes too many decision-makers involved in processes that directly affect frontline employees. Not a true "con", just the reality of a fast-paced and growing company.
