Pros

Enthusiastic animators who love what they do. A nice sense of community

Cons

For junior animators they get paid below poverty level for what skills they have attained. And for highly talented animators they do not get paid well enough . Who's fault is this? Too much competition for the cheapest labor . Even with the quebec tax breaks, the profit margins for the studios are meek. therefore it's passed down to the animators . and crew.
