Pros
the employees at CR are dedicated, passionate and welcoming of folks from diverse backgrounds (not just anime). excellent work environment and good benefits (if you're not a contractor).
Cons
leadership since the sony acquisition is, frankly, terrible at creating cohesive, functional strategy. never has it been more clear that VP+ level members don't consume the content they market/produce. executive leadership is extremely out-of-touch with the anime audience, and their top-heavy growth strategy creates mass confusion for company goals, priorities and unnecessarily heavy workloads that fall upon team members down-ladder. this can range from poorly-informed company direction to outright dehumanized/tone-deaf presentations during company meetings around layoffs and impacted employees struggling with mental health.
