      Pros

      As an employee of the company, there are numerous opportunities to meet an exceptional pool of experienced music executives and attend music-based events. I love my colleagues!!

      Cons

      Sadly, for all but a few, the company does not demonstrate interest in or place much value in employee career path development. A position without growth can only provide (at best) short-term satisfaction.

      Pros

      It pays fairly well, love the Holiday Gift Week, nice vacation/sick/personal policy. Great benefits.

      Cons

      Favoritism, neoptism, etc by higher ups is at its finest here. Seniority, loyalty means nothing to this company. They try to circumvent union rules, FML, etc. until they get caught. Overloaded on upper management.
