Pros

Fancy catered breakfast on Mondays

Cons

Efficient to a fault- leaves absolutely no room for the creative process or experimentation. Supervisor runs the office like a tyrant and there's a heavy gloomy vibe apparent to everyone who walks through the door.

Pros

-People are nice -Great location for a commute if you're on the west side of the city or live outside Manhattan -Decent Pay -Voluntary overtime

Cons

-No documented workflow. All coordinators work differently, even when working on something specific like how VFX shot references are created in Premiere. -Not enough work to go around, I was working maybe only two hours a day. Doesn't seem to be a correlation between staff efficiency and the amount of work brought in -Lack of internal communication. Producers aren't aware of new assets/elements until they're needed, which effects deadlines and client expectations (meaning, nobody is checking to make sure assets/elements are correct when received) -No apparent structure. Was never introduced to a supervisor nor wasn't given any idea of who one reports to and/or what everyone does -A bit of the 'this is the way we've always done things' mentality.
