Pros

Good people. But sadly most have left.

Cons

A lot of cons. Way to many to go on with. Over all kidrobot can be a great company but not under Neca and the owner of it. The owner is slowly pulling this company down. The owner is very cheep and doesn't know anything about toys. Bad ideas come from him and they are laughable. The work life balance is awful and project are always a mess. No direction and no goals in mind as a company. Recently most of all staff was laid off trying to keep the company going. Before that people were leaving left and right because it was so bad. I used to know 25 plus people and now I know 3.

Pros

Really cool company that makes weird and amazing products. The creative atmosphere attracts really awesome employees. I love everyone I worked with.

Cons

Low pay and no room for advancement. Customer support is the bottom of the totem pole. As the sole support person you can't take time off without work piling up.

Pros

The current Art Director is fantastic. She knows what she’s doing, communicates clearly, and should honestly be running the team. Kidrobot gave me my first job in the industry, and I’ll always be grateful for that start.

Cons

I worked here for 6 years, and in that time, management never improved. Pay is far below industry standards. I started as a junior sculptor at $35k, and even as Head of Sculpt, I topped out at only $51k. Work-life balance does not exist. You’re expected to work nights and weekends, even while remote, with no appreciation. Leadership shows a lack of respect and communication.
