however:
- certain job types such as technical are choked by a limited grading system. you can only work up to a certain amount of experience, then they "red circle" your employment status and your salary is capped. this happened to me twice. their management is not quick to fix this nor did they actually do anything about it for the past 9 years. i do not know if it will change since they do not acknowledge technical contributions to their studio success. i repeatedly asked for their status on adding a new job grade to technical, but my requests were ignored.
if your studio skills are mainly technical, then you must make a decision as to whether or not you can remain in a job that offers a salary that is capped once you meet the upper limits of your job grade.
if that is okay for you, then this is your place. if not, then you must make this employer a stepping stone to continue your employment elsewhere.
