Pros

Good benefits plan and pension plan is a rarity so consider staying the five years for vesting. Good learning experience and a good first step to career.

Cons

Have to be underpaid for five years to vest pension plan. This is a good stepping stone for a career in entertainment/labor but unless you're in the tail end of your career and looking to coast to retirement, this is a 2-3yr pitstop.

Pros

The mission is meaningful and the benefits package is cool

Cons

Work-life balance is poor. The workload and expectations feel consistently high, and coverage isn’t reliable, when things get busy, support can be inconsistent. The biggest issue is fairness: there’s a noticeable pay gap even within the same team for comparable work, and it’s hard not to feel discouraged when people doing the same job are compensated very differently. It also doesn’t feel like a true team. Accountability is uneven, and when some employees disengage or avoid work, the same few people end up carrying the load to keep everything running. Leadership responsiveness can be inconsistent, and representation and inclusion efforts don’t always feel reflected in decision-making.
