Culture has changed drastically with new ownership
Pros
NOTE: I wrote the one and only review of OC Creative (formerly OC Imageworks) which was positive. - - - - - - - PRO: Benefits: Medical, Dental, Vision, Simple IRA with Matching, Yearly Educational stipend PRO: Snacks provided PRO: Remote work option during bad weather PRO: Short commute PRO: Work/Life balance: Time off is generous when needed, just know that you may or may not be paid dependent on how management feels about you personally
Cons
CON: There are no standards to meet per project, evaluation of work is completely subjective and is based on the feeling d'jour of the owner CON: Staff is micromanaged and have basically become order takers without creativity allowed CON: Management does not consider employee input CON: It is not a professional work environment CON: Culture drastically changed with new ownership—it is no longer based on trust CON: Previous creative, unique, and quality final product has been replaced by fast, easy, and cheap CON: Experience does not match salary CON: Absolutely NO opportunity to grow within the company CON: Promises of bonuses and increases in pay have been unmet for years CON: Yearly reviews are not utilized, and even when a review takes place, it is quote "not in conjunction with a raise" CON: Time off is generous when needed, just know that you may or may not be paid dependent on how management feels about you personally
