Pros

I've had a wonderful experience and have learned a lot. In terms of the industry this is the absolute best there is. I feel like issues here are related more to the industry than RH.

Cons

Compensation needs to be higher. They are a large company they can manage.

Pros

Great writing, Top tier production

Cons

The male director never asked me once how I was doing or offer any advice to calm my nerves (on my first production ever with them) which lead to a burdensome recording process.

Pros

Great People, wonderful industry, books!

Cons

It has become less about the product and the people and more about the profit. No room for advancement. More work, less people, less empathy.
