Pros

Employee perks, gym, benefits, happy hour and good process for onboarding

Cons

Unrealistic expectations! The company recently changed salary employees to hourly but still expect deadlines to be met. A lot of my coworkers are working extra time to get the job done and not being compensated for overtime. They won’t approve it! Constant change in senior leadership who make poor company decisions. Expectations for high performance and low pay. Office environment is dark, cold and quiet. You can hear a pin drop. No one communicates in there but still won’t let us work from home ? On top of that terrible terrible traffic into Culver City with major HQs in the same city. It takes 40 min to get to the freeway !!! Very unmotivating to say the least.

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
