Pros

See cons, nothing really good about this place.

Cons

Owner is so full of himself. Blames everyone else for anything that is wrong. Rude and doesn't know how to treat artist (or anyone) with respect. Doesn't know how to give directions and contradicts himself. Will say one thing today and tomorrow will be completely opposite. The pipeline is terrible. No one really reviews stuff until it gets to the screening room. Production is horrible at managing shots and tasks. I've worked in some bad places but this is by far the worst. Please avoid this place like the plague. This place will burn you out so fast you'll wish you weren't in this industry!

Pros

I am not a big Windows fan, glad to see that they use Linux for all their computers. They have a full in house rendering farm, don't have to deal with crappy cloud rendering like at some other places. Lots of parking available.

Cons

Located on the westside. So it can be a hard commute to work from the valley.

Pros

Work on high-profile projects Can bring pets to work

Cons

The owner can't emotionally regulate and takes it out on his employees. He also talks badly about them behind their backs. There is no support system or proper channels. They run through employees, especially the production team overly quickly leading to the rest of the team to be confused and trying to figure out what to do and then sadly falling behind of which the team will be yelled at for. DO NOT WORK HERE IF YOU VALUE YOUR SANITY.
