Pros

Free catered lunch everyday. Cool building in a great location. Fun and interesting staff. The amazing creative talent in the building is inspiring. Executive producer is the nicest most reasonable person you could hope to work for.

Cons

Tons of overtime. Except for a few people in select departments you have to practically beg for a raise even though they are happy to add to your work load. Highly nepotistic environment were only a few favorite people are promoted and acknowledged. Closed door policy with upper level executives and owners. Dead end for assistant editors. PAs are not treated the best.

Pros

Free lunch, flexible schedule. Meet lots of cool people while working here. Great place to gain experience and boost your resume.

Cons

At times working here felt a bit cliquish. Also, from what I noticed there was little interest in advancing assistants to their roster. If you’re interested in finding a house where you can start from the bottom and make a roster in a efficient timeline I would not start with RPS. Nothing wrong with this, you just need to understand what comes with the territory when working here.

Pros

-Some opportunities to gain experience with the tools of the trade. -Located in the city, so commuting is manageable.

Cons

-Management is sneaky and manipulative. They prioritize their own interests over the well-being of their team, often leaving assistants out to dry. -Toxic culture. There's a general lack of support and encouragement; instead, you'll find plenty of undermining and finger-pointing. -Exploitation of staff. Editors and producers seem more interested in taking advantage of their assistants than mentoring them. -No pay. They expect long hours of hard work but fail to compensate fairly (or at all). -There are better post houses in the city that treat their staff with respect and professionalism.
