Pros

Location. It’s in Downtown Los Angeles. Overall great people with one or two bad apples.

Cons

Terrible management. It’s like working back in the 1980’s. This office has a very defined seating hierarchy - management near windows - staff in the back. No real office culture. It gets tiresome to hear your supervisor talk about his ex-girlfriends and women in his life. Lots of inappropriate jokes with his junior staff. Director thinks he’s the solution but his ego is too inflated to understand he is the problem. Strong “macho” culture. Inflexible work hours. Unrealistic - sometimes made-up deadlines. No real local projects. This office mainly supports the region.
