Lionsgate reviews

Stuffy and corporate all the way up the food chain. This is the kind of place that tells interns they need to spend their whole days getting coffee and taking sandwich orders if they ever want to advance in their careers (blatantly untrue - there are plenty of places in Hollywood that will provide stimulating work for their employees, intern or not). Senior Management was unaware of which movies the company has made. Once provided me with a list of films including Saw, Twilight, etc., and had me look through a physical filling cabinet (where the records were kept, apparently) to see if the company had distributed then or not. I checked them off by memory instead, because unlike management I actually enjoy the film industry. If you enjoy film, I wouldn't recommend Lionsgate - they have had very few successful movies since the heyday of Twilight/Hunger Games. You get few interesting projects, and it shows in the disinterest of everyone around you. Add on top of that a generally bro-y culture and this is probably the last place in Santa Monica you want to work

Some departments have lifers15-20 years in same jobs or departments, they are allowed to get real comfortable and not add value. These lifers and some people who know how to work the political game are allowed to get away with murder and still keep their jobs. Leadership is scared to make bold moves because they are also lifers. Always the worry that the company is for sale always having to keep one eye open if layoffs are coming.
