Pros

it's close to a metro station.

Cons

Low pay. No overtime (yet bullies the juniors into working for free because they are pushovers and need material for their portfolios).Be prepared to feel "grateful" that Quebec gave you a job working on a feature film! Let's the Director (not TLP) verbally abuse people. Oppressive work environment.

Possibly One of the Worst

Pros

My team was generally pretty great! Most of the artists refused to appear on camera, so it was hard to get to know them. But those that I did meet were very nice!

Cons

I was required to move to Montreal only to find out other leads were allowed to remain in their home country (US like me). I was clear I had a service dog, and when I arrived in Montreal I was denied entrance into the studio. A few months after being forced to move I was laid off without ever meeting my team or stepping foot in the studio. Also, it's a complete mess regarding assets and animation in preparation for CFX. The most simple things became absolutely huge issues for no reason. The artist management department ghosted me and never gave me a heads up there was no work after my project, what the future held, just not doing her job at all. She was promoted, so go figure!
