Pros

The employees (NOT LEADERSHIP) are great. Everyone is so dedicated, driven, and talented at what they do.

Cons

Where to begin. Please, for the sake of your mental, physical, and emotion health, do not work at this company. They chronically underpay and overwork employees. You will work 10-14 hour days multiple times a week. Working weekends expected. Being on call, responding to emails and notifications is expected around the clock. You will not be given reasonable time to do the tasks you are given, and then blamed for the inevitable failure. The “raises” at this company after you give countless hours, weekends, holidays up for them is 5%....and when you make $30,000 a year, that’s next to nothing. They consistently work people into the ground, fire them when they are burned out, and then try to replace them with a less qualified person who is willing to work for the low salaries they offer. Work life balance is 0. This company inherently requires your life to become your work. The amount of responsibility and pressure they put on their employees is nothing short of disgusting. Editors have to pull all nighters. People work 3 weeks in a row with no days off. Please do not sell yourself to this company, to earn them millions of more dollars, while you make less than $45,000.

Pros

The small amount of actually hard working people will get you through the hardship. Nothing good about the actual company.

Cons

- This Company is run by Toxic leaders that do not listen to their employees. Treats them like trash and manipulates them until everyone is uncomfortable and having mental breakdowns. -They do not pay any of there employees what they deserve no matter what level they are. -They do not understand what a work life balance means they want you to live, breathe and die at the office or on shoots. -This is not a place for young people starting in this industry and not for the experienced people either. -Majority of leadership do not value their employees

Pros

The one shining beacon during my time at TBNR was the team. Colleagues were friendly, but their friendliness often seemed like a desperate attempt to keep morale afloat in a sinking ship. TBNR seemed to brag about its ability to capture global talent, but in practice, it felt like a smoke screen for the underlying issues that plagued the company. The CEO and President might be nice people, but their inability to address the rampant issues within the company made their niceness utterly inconsequential. The initial changes made by the COO were a brief respite from the chaos, but they were quickly overshadowed by the ongoing problems.

Cons

High turnover and low job satisfaction were the norm at TBNR. It felt like the company was perpetually teetering on the edge of collapse. Management at TBNR had a talent for making employees feel unimportant and undervalued. They claimed to listen but never took any meaningful action to improve our working conditions. TBNR decided to increase the workload, add complexity to our tasks, and decrease timelines, all while slashing the workforce. It was a recipe for disaster, and it played out exactly as expected. When they say The Best Never Rest, they really mean it - you'll feel bad for sleeping for more than 6 hours. If you value your personal time, TBNR is not the place for you. Working on weekends became the norm, and taking time off was actively discouraged. Employees were subjected to constant monitoring, making it feel like we were living in a surveillance state. Taking time off was treated with suspicion, eroding any sense of trust. 1:1 meetings with management were a parade of negativity. They never acknowledged our accomplishments and seemed more interested in breaking our spirits than nurturing our growth.
