Poor Management

Pros

It was interesting to work with some of the biggest names in the music industry. The day would be varied and would keep you tested in multiple disciplines of work, not just what you were employed to be doing. The employees were smart, genuinely warm and friendly and some of the most hard working people I've ever worked with.

Cons

Management employed underhand tactics internally to make the company feel less like a team-effort and more like Hunger Games. Found management who swung between NY & LA to be exceptionally sexist towards the women in the company and scattered in leadership skills and direction. Not enough product knowledge and a reluctance to listen to employees generally. Too much emphasis on "fake it till we make it" and making a product that is there just to be sold to the highest bidder, rather than creating the best user experience for both the artists and fans. No strategy. Found it demoralizing to get consistent negative feedback from artists and management about the app. Acquisition of fake DAU & social activity was a joke.

This job is not worth the facade they put on while hiring you

Cons

- Worst management - No professional / personal growth options - Favoritism and politics like none other - Please save yourself from a nightmare work environment and horrible upper management who really don't know what they are doing
