Pros

Access to music industry events Decent pay and benefits

Cons

Leadership fosters a hostile and divisive environment which overtime has created a miserable work atmosphere with low morale for my department. The CEO is verbally abusive and often says weird comments to staff. You have to smile, keep a straight face and not speak up in order to have positive experiences in the workplace even though there is more than often clear violations amongst leadership members
