Pros

The concept is good- just needs to benefit all

Cons

I was here less than three months and due to high staff turnover in the last year there have been some recent negative reviews which are valid and helpful for those who would like to work here. 90 wont change so instead have asked staff to write positive ones and also ask people to write 5 star reviews on facebook including freelancers- it's better to be honest than waste people's time/ livelihoods. I wish i knew! I left pretty quick as the whole vibe was off and no freelancers wanted to work for us which I have never had issues with before- I have heard really bad things in the film and TV world- the team manager was defensive and non existent. I got no training. Markup is huge on projects and the freelancers lose out. ? Just doesn't seem like good Kiwi Business and is embarrassing to all other NZ start ups trying to do good. We are trying to build the NZ film and TV industry and this company takes advantage of those who have worked hard. Freelancers are battling to make a living. 90 should be growing the industry and making it stronger- what an amazing piece of tech that would be.
