Pros

good benefits, good salary if you can work your way up

Cons

Music industry not as fun as it used to be. Constant threat of layoffs, long hours, and short staffed topped with upper management throwing employees under the bus to save their jobs.

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.
