Pros

The people who work there are passionate and want the company to succeed. Good benefits; Flexible with time off depending on what department you work for.

Cons

People in management do not get direction from the top, or should not be in management. It's a 3 ring circus and everyone is very unhappy. Bad morale. No real career advancement, overworked and underpaid.

Pros

Enjoyed learning about new artists/music. Worked with some great, talented colleagues. Benefits were top notch.

Cons

This is a fear-based culture through and through. Most are in a constant state of fight or flight. I’d never experienced such a volatile environment which was largely driven from the top. Huge pay disparity between upper management and rest of staff.
