Absolutely terrible company. Pretends to be progressive but is almost exclusively white - Account Manager UCB Theater Employee Review

Entertaining the masses and producing top notch comedy.

New owners who are inexperienced in the world of theatre.

The talent, the people, the community

The CEO, Mike McAvoy. He lets his employees flounder and expects them to read his mind instead of providing actual leadership. Rather than offering guidance, he talks about employees to others, turning the theater into his own personal Hunger Games where everyone is forced to fight for survival. He’s driven away countless overqualified leaders because his fragile ego can’t handle strong Women with clear points of view who are smarter than him. He's a terrible CEO and doesn't provide facts. Instead, he talks in riddles and expects you to understand what he wants. He ignores good ideas, overworks people, and tries to pay them as little as possible for their labor and creativity—while contributing none of his own. His decisions are consistently terrible, and his loyalty extends only to money and power. The environment he’s created is one of fear, chaos, and exhaustion. I feel sorry for the remaining employees. Eventually they’ll burn out and leave, or get dropped at a moments notice because Mike felt like it, leaving those employees wishing they had never been associated with the CEO, Mike McAvoy in the first place. Mike lacks vision. He's the living example of someone who tripped on a job and somehow failed up.
