Pros

Great, motivated co-workers. Usually recent grads looking for a foot in the door to get to know and work with people in the industry

Cons

The Owner is terrible. This in one of the most abusive work environments I’ve ever worked at. I know for a fact that women who worked there doing the exact same jobs as the men received lower wages. The owner would frequently send all caps emails in the middle of the night going off about things he’d heard and was seething about for days. Reasons for him writing these all caps emails included things like saying “no problem” when speaking with a client that was thanking you for helping them. He has threatened legal action against former employees for not helping him with the administration of his business even after they no longer work there. In my time there which was about 3 years, employees lived in constant fear that one day they would be fired at the whim of the owner with zero recourse. The owner even went as far as having his payroll company conduct “anonymous” HR surveys in which the payroll companies identified the employees who answered the questions. I could not recommend a workplace less. Do not work here. There are other places that will treat you well and you will learn a ton about the industry. This place is terrible.

Pros

Get to work with high-end camera and production gear, Get connections in the industry, Help on productions for large companies, Decent enough pay and benefits for entry-level work, Often a tight-knit team

Cons

The Owner is difficult to work for. He micromanages, and fosters a frustrating work environment. He has a passion for his work and is wonderful to clients, but takes an outdated and sometimes inappropriate approach to managing a team.

Pros

Health Insurance, OK starting pay for recent grads. Boss does go above and beyond for customers. You can get special treatment if you work him the right way. Good way to get some experience with gear and make contacts with people in the industry.

Cons

Ron the owner is temperamental. Does not listen to management or staff. Will change long held processes on a whim for illogical reasons and then will blame staff when changes destroy productivity and moral. As previously stated the owner does treat customers well, usually at the expense of employees who will usually have to do extra work to fulfill owners promises or take blame for rude and unreasonable customers. The company's reputation is also extremely poor among all other rental houses in the city.
