Pros

Great Projects You can learn a lot, some great tools to work with. Core team is solid and resourceful.

Cons

Expect to do lots of overtime due to bad planning (most of the time). Projects post-mortem don't seem to exist. Lack of cooperation between workers and unhealthy competition at some moments. Lower salary's compared to other studios.

Pros

Always working on interesting, popular or well-known shows, which makes friends and family very encouraged and gives a great sense of recognition outside the work place. Also, MPC mainly hires from within so if you fit in well with their model (drink the kool-aid) you can potentially work your way up. They also do provide plenty of coffee/tea and Friday night drinks and mingle hour.

Cons

Generally, the work and structure is highly disorganized producing a very hectic and stressful work environment. MPC also provides very little in the way of benefit and no bonuses. They also try to work around some labor laws here and there so as to not have to do things like pay certain employees OT or workers comp, etc. Oh, and they chrun through people super fast! They're attrition rate is very high! They're always hiring because they burn their employees who are quick to move on - except for those who did drink the kool-aid and are in management positions. Ie only those people are still left from when I started - most artists I worked with first couple months are gone!

Pros

I've been there for a few months now and haven't experienced any of the negative stuff people seem to say before working there. Everyone seems to be considerate, working hours seem to be pretty reasonable and I've never been asked to stay late against my will. Lovely working environment, seem to treat their staff well too.

Cons

We finish quite late in relation to the 'average' office day of 9-5, maybe that's just industry though.
