Pros

Not much except maybe the gym on site.

Cons

No on boarding for a young graduate in a new job. You are expected to know everything and when you ask for clarity someone will roll their eyes at you. Stay away from Pascal Pictures within Sony. No mentoring, no support to understand your job. You are working for a celebrity, not a company. This means all the underlings are vying for the work so others will grab the requests and push you out. No collaboration. No management advice. Just mean girls. They will just lay you off with a "mea culpa...we over hired."

Pros

- began work with an amazing team and culture - exposure to major IP and high-profile campaigns - some genuinely talented and passionate colleagues - fast-paced environment that builds skills quickly - healthcare is decent - some fun on-lot perks

Cons

- poor work/life balance exceptions from SPTV lower and upper management - unmanageable workload left little room for the collaboration and meeting engagement leadership expected - upper management changes resulted in reactive restructuring with little regard for team culture or continuity - inconsistent management: some leaders failed to empower or advocate for their teams - clear office politics which interfere with business decisions - quick burnout when management fails to course-correct workload - leadership set workloads based on personal work style rather than sustainable team norms - little to no growth opportunities - 4 days in office is excessive and unnecessary
