DNEG Reviews

Pros

Health benefits after 3 months Great resources and workshops for mental health, burnout, leadership growth Production contract extensions average 6 months or more Committed to supporting career advancement and personal growth Management is understanding, flexible, and supportive in finding a job title that best suits personality and work style

Cons

More overtime than initially outlined, but that's typical of the industry Premature career advancement in leadership roles, not enough experience Each site has very different pipeline/operations, which makes it difficult when working on a cross-site show

Pros

- The local team, from the Supes to the artists are great (and even amazing for most of them)... but most of them are now gone or about to leave. - Lots of high-profile projects... but for how long? - Room for internal promotion (at least it used to)... there will be a lot of positions to fill x') - Lots of talk about inclusivity/diversity/... but no real action outside of that. It's something to talk about something to look good but if you don't actually act on it you just make it worst.

Cons

- Worst CEO - completely disconnected from his +6000 employees and the Industry, only want to make money even if it means sacrificing 20 years of work. - No respect for the core team that actually built this company and earn multiple awards the past few years. - All the work is way underbid (not respecting the supes original bids) and 90% of it ends up in Mumbai... and then come back as a last-minute 911. Ends up costing dozens of time more with OTs. - All the upper management is now based in India. As all the decisions have to go through them it takes weeks to hear back from them... and that's how you lose artists by dozens every week. - Vancouver office lost +50% of their core crew the past 9 months. People leave for other companies who actually want to invest in them.
