Nickelodeon Animation Studio

Is this your company?

Soul crushing cartoon factory assembly line, great friends, doesn't value its talent. - Character Modeler Nickelodeon Animation Studio Employee Review

Pros

I've made some great friends at Nickelodeon. The unreasonably tight deadlines trained me to become excellent at my craft.

Cons

They like to hire kids straight out of school so they can under pay them. They don't value their talent and don't even try to keep talent. In the same breath they will thank you for your hard work and making such a successful show for them and then only give you a 0.5 percent raise. There is also no room for growth here. Why would you want to move up in a company where your own boss hates their job? Even if you are talented beyond your job description, there is no opportunity to demonstrate it because you are a cog in a big animation production pipeline.
