Imageworks Employee Reviews about "great people"

Pros

Great people and exciting projects

Cons

Poor scheduling of projects, excessive overtime leads to burnout

Pros

- Great people - Innovative history - Good pay and benefits - Free snacks and coffee

Cons

- Super cold and impersonal workplace - Projects are all regurgitations (sequels) and not very exciting - Management doesn't really go out on the floor and mingle with the people - Very corporate - Bad attitudes in employees isn't dealt with, but rather poked fun at, instead of making the hard decisions to get in better people

Pros

Getting to work on movies, great people, able to have time to learn and develop new skills sets

Cons

Hey is not great, Canfield pigeonholed after a couple years, upper management is only seeking profitsbecause the industry itself is so hammered by tax incentives

Pros

Potential to work on big projects and opportunities to move throughout the company are available. Great people in the studio.

Cons

A lot of employee turnover causes instability across all depts and quite a few leave on bad terms. Low pay in overhead departments.

Pros

The culture is fantastic and I met a lot of great people/friends.

Cons

The leadership seems clueless at times and has somewhat falsified information in the past to keep employees around, only to move their positions a few months later. Not willing to negotiate yearly, and/or negotiation time is ambiguous and no direct conversation about compensation after moving from temp to full-time. There was little to no training when bringing people "up-to-speed" before being thrown into the 'fire'.
