Orange Circle Studio Reviews

*NOTE: Orange Circle Studio was recently rebranded to Whimsocal. - Leadership, particularly the CEO, is shockingly incompetent and seems to make a lot of reckless and questionable decisions. They seem to have VERY little understanding of the actual work that goes into roles at the company. In turn they show a clear lack of respect for certain employees & under-value many of them. - They set you up for failure with unmanageable workloads/no support, yet are delusional about the results they expect (perfection). - If you do a good job they will try every chance they get to 'reward' you with more work for likely no additional compensation. - Leadership can also be VERY passive-aggressive, patronizing, and rude to certain employees (especially ones they seemingly do not like) leading to a very toxic work environment. I was shocked & disgusted to see how some of my coworkers were treated.

Studio Oh/ Orange Circle Studio (Now goes by Whimsocal) is a sinking ship. A company who once proudly paraded that they uplifted women artists and stood for a good cause is now just a hallow shell of what they once were. They’ve laid off a substantial amount of their staff in the last few months. In a society where losing your job to ai is a real and genuine threat and the proven massive negative environmental impact it creates, the company is championing its use and encouraging very heavy-handedly that everyone must start using it for as much as they can in their workflow. Upper management only cares about their own livelihood, providing no advocacy for their employees and forcing unreasonable deadlines for an insulting amount of pay. They have begun outsourcing entire teams of people who have been with the company for years and chase profit over morals. Studio Oh (Whimsocal) is a spineless and greedy company that will turn and burn every employee until there is nothing left. Do not take a job here.
