Pros

- Some of the employee's are the only reason why I believe people stick or stuck it out as long as they have since the new CEO. - Beautiful modern office designed while under the 'ole media management' brand. The god awful rebrand makes the office look like a daycare center with the finger painting job of purple and blue throughout the office. - Opportunity to work with the worlds greatest guitar artist Jose Feliciano.

Cons

- CEO (Helen Murphy) looks out for herself and only herself. If you try to have a voice or opinion in any facet you will be screamed at and likely fired. Her claim to fame is empowering women when all she did was cut each and every woman down and gaslight the crap out of them. - Zero accountability and finger pointing culture. No one will admit when they are wrong and will likely throw you under the bus for personal gain. - C-Level executives line their own pockets while offering little to no bonus for the working employee that is demanded to work 24/7. - Anthem Entertainment is ashamed to be called a Canadian company and embrace their Canadian roots. If Helen Murphy had it her way this company would be strictly operating out of the US (primarily NY). - Major imposter syndrome - Terrible reputation in the industry Run... don't walk... run away from this company. And no... the benefits plan does not cover any therapy for the countless hours and money you will need to spend while being employed there.

Pros

- swanky downtown office 21 floors up - free coffee - some very intelligent and kind staff members - a general sense of "we all work for the worst company together" vibe which helps make working for the worst company a bit more bare-able. - competitive pay and benefits

Cons

- Uses Black Lives Matters, Woman's Equality, and LGBT2Q+ movements as catch phrases/social media fodder but in reality does not do anything internally to lift up these groups. - HR is completely performative. Zero interest in actually protecting/advising staff. - Toxic work environment (under both former and current CEO). - Nepotism runs rampant. ESPECIALLY from current CEO Helen Murphy. - Honesty in your work is not valued here. Even if it is coming from a place of experience, knowing, and is backed up with factual information. - Helen Murphy lacks leadership, inter-personal, and motivational skills to hold a CEO position. She rules with an iron fist and doesn't have the sense to know to ask for help when she doesn't know something. - Not completely certain (based on first hand experience) current CEO Helen Murphy understands the difference between Master Ownership and Publishing Rights ownership in music and how those two things interact within the company depending on the project. - Staff asking for fair compensation in line with the work being asked of them is responded to with reprimand. - Constant turn over and staff purges due to which most staff live in constant fear for their jobs.

Pros

Some staff are lovely to work with and have great ideas to better the company.

Cons

- Most toxic workplace EVER. Every single call usually ends in a rant fest about how everyone hates the environment. It bleeds down from executives onto everyone. You can see the pain in everyone's faces. - Narcissistic CEO is only interested in her own agenda and cannot take any criticism or feedback. It's one thing to be a hard boss, but this is next level. Tr(_)mp 2.0 - There are ZERO strategies for the company overall. No organization. - There is no investment in the staff they have. The new CEO has taken away a lot of company culture benefits. - This company has a horrible reputation in the music industry. Mentioning you work here to peers at other companies and artists tends to pair with a sorry look of "ohhhhh"
