Pros

This is a small company with limited resources, incompetent upper management, and petty office drama. The benefits are bad and you will never see a raise. They will probably lowball your salary to get you hired and never raise it. The project management is disorganized and you might never know if you're doing too much or too little based on the lack of real feedback. This company has no resources. It is tiny. If you needed emergency medical leave, sick leave, had to take extra days to go to a funeral, whatever, you would be scr*wed. They put A LOT of value on trying to seem as hip and cool as possible but they don't have the fundamentals as a business to back it up. Don't say nobody told you.

Cons

No organization, petty office disputes, no money

Pros

Really cool company that makes weird and amazing products. The creative atmosphere attracts really awesome employees. I love everyone I worked with.

Cons

Low pay and no room for advancement. Customer support is the bottom of the totem pole. As the sole support person you can't take time off without work piling up.

Pros

The current Art Director is fantastic. She knows what she’s doing, communicates clearly, and should honestly be running the team. Kidrobot gave me my first job in the industry, and I’ll always be grateful for that start.

Cons

I worked here for 6 years, and in that time, management never improved. Pay is far below industry standards. I started as a junior sculptor at $35k, and even as Head of Sculpt, I topped out at only $51k. Work-life balance does not exist. You’re expected to work nights and weekends, even while remote, with no appreciation. Leadership shows a lack of respect and communication.
