Pros

MacBook, free lunch once per week, location

Cons

1. You Are Expendable Labor • Coordinators exist to be worked then discarded and ignored • $2 "raises" are insulting when executives get luxury budgets • Black staff face daily microaggressions and systemic exclusion 2. COVID Safety? Not a Priority • Actively hid outbreaks during Creative Week • Put staff health at risk for vanity events 3. The Career Graveyard • ZERO promotion opportunities - you'll stagnate for years • No mentorship, no development, just dead ends • Turn over rate is through the roof, several people have quit within the last year. 4. Management Incompetence (upper and lower management) • CEO delegates everything to #2 • Constant disorganization and blame-shifting • Meetings missed, deadlines blown, staff scapegoated • Too arrogant/discriminatory to engage with temporary staff Survival Tips If You're Desperate: ✓ Document every assignment and interaction ✓ Review all pay stubs for "errors" ✓ Never stop job searching -this place goes nowhere and will drop you in a heart beat (they have let go of employees who’ve been there for 10+ years and don’t bat an eye) Final Verdict: A soul-crushing pit where dreams go to die. The only upward mobility you'll find is the exit door.
