Pros
Super smart people that are fun to work with They invest a lot in training and continuing education Great environments with lots of perks like free breakfast and lunch
Cons
This is a Hollywood company, in many ways. Expect employment contracts and occasional layoffs (though DWA has fewer than most in the industry). You're working in a fun environment on a cool product, so if you're a techie you're not going to make as much as you will at a tech company. Crunch time for a film means working 6 day weeks for the last several months of a production, though if you're not directly on a film you'll have a more normal schedule.
