Pros

Literally zero. I see that they are writing fake reviews in order to try and help with recruitment. Please read through all reviews, especially the honest ones. They are all true.

Cons

- Extremely toxic people in upper management. I personally was bullied EVERY SINGLE DAY by my manager and it took a serious toll on my mental health. Its one thing to have a large work load, but dealing with downright mean people is 10x worse - There is no structure at all with workflows. It is extremely confusing and they have a sink-or-swim mentality here - There is an ENORMOUS amount of work for everyone at every level, caused by the terrible work flows and the small teams. expect to pull 50,60 hour work weeks - EXTREMELY high turnover rates, my team ran through people like no other. A person would quit after a few months, then be replaced, then they would quit. Everyone at the company has worked there for less than a year, including upper manangmeent. That says a lot. An endless cycle and the company isn't learning from it. I wonder why everyone is quitting. Maybe do just a little bit of self-reflection - Most teams are extremely toxic and awful, and some teams are okay, but do you really want to take that gamble? Trust me, I did and it is 100000% not worth it at all. You will not have a life outside of work and that is not okay - The energy of the office is terrible too because everyone is overworked, dealing with mean people all day, they never get time to see their kids or friends, everyone is soooo unhappy - The benefits are quite bad here too. Not on par with rest of the industry by a long shot - Extremely clicky people, feels like high school - Totally useless HR department. - STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR. YOU ARE BETTER THAN THIS. YOU WILL THANK YOUR FUTURE SELF. I promise you, no amount of money, a higher position, or whatever it is that is making you consider taking a job at Jazwares, is worth it. - If you are still working at Jazwares, I'm so sorry. I promise you that you are worthy, and things will get better soon, even though it is scary make your escape.

Pros

- Good personalities around the office, doesn't feel overly corporate - Decent benefits

Cons

- Management is not communicative, eager to throw you under the bus, and lack general leadership qualities. - Cross-team communication seems oddly discouraged even though it would make everyone's jobs easier. - HR is extremely slow at managing contracts and renewals causing a lot of employee stress. - Does not value anything in an employee other than speed and compliance. - Lost a lot of great people and have been cutting positions a good amount too.
