Pros

- No shortage of challenging problems in the industry.

Cons

- Management is not willing to tackle those problems. Or will pretend to, nothing will actually happen, and they'll blame their employees for their own failure. - Culture is a joke; they claim inclusivity, yet management is clearly a white boy's club. - If you work in IT, it's likely your boss may think that they can treat you however they want, if they pay you enough. And if it's not enough, then it's your fault you took the job. - Managers will look for scapegoats to take the fall for their mistakes, rather than take responsibility themselves. - No attempt will be made to understand you or your skill set. You are a cog in a machine, and you will do what you are told. - Your opinion will not be heard. Your managers already know what they want, despite not understanding the technology, and you need to go make it happen.

Pros

Nice facilities. Interesting industry. Health insurance & 401(k).

Cons

Management is untrustworthy, disloyal to staff and create a hostile workplace for many. The best and brightest leaders and staff have left or been driven out by less qualified and dishonest individuals with no industry experience and poor leadership skills.

Pros

- One pro, it's a job. So there's that, bills paid. - You might or might not get to see a country singer or songwriter inside the building (not often but from time to time) - When I worked there it was 37.5 hours per week

Cons

- The culture is bad. Not just a corporate America type of your just a number. The culture is filled with management and upper management people who are unethical. And if you think you can go to HR, they aren't on the straight and narrow either. They follow the puppet strings of upper management and they are not confidential. I hope in the time since I've left some changes have been made, but I doubt it. The company is filled with those who should be let go or retired soon, because they are part of the good ole boys club or older women who've supported the club for so long they're in it too. They aren't in the present age and don't know how to follow their own policies and hold people accountable for breaking them. They just tell the lower ranked employee to go sit back down and don't ripple the waters and keep the shady culture going. - In the 7 years I worked there, the benefits declined, the holidays declined, the hours went up, and other benefits declined. - The pay is below the market. Welfare. - There is no growth or movement. They know someone will want to back fill your position off the street because they're in the music industry and the newbie will just see lights and glitter, so they won't try to keep you and if you complain they'll show you the door. No loyalty to high performers. - I am not a scorned former employee posting this for revenge. I performed at a high level all 7 years. I saw what was around me. Some done to me, some done around me. I'm posting so others can make an informed decision on a company they are considering to have as an employer. Someone they'll lean on for career development and to pay their bills. There are better companies out there that value employees and where you'll have a great work life and work/life balance. Coworkers who care, managers who care. This company doesn't have that ( I know the difference now).
