Marvel Entertainment reviews

I worked there three years and was essentially fired/laid off due to a NY HQ EVP (political play). All power in this company resides in NY and there is a small group of Executives there that control the show...even with TV and Film. These Executives are not your friends and have no interest in your growth or happiness. You will be viewed as a 'means to an end'. I've seen quality and loyal (5-10 yrs for service) fired because of the NY cabal - not agreeing with their dictates. Oh, and don't expect any of those Disney perks at Marvel. Marvel is a notoriously cheap and frugal (even with their billions in profits) company. Again with the NY management team's perview...you should be happy you have a job.

Shockingly stingy. No real career track, advancement/development programs. Easy to get stuck in a rut. The company does not care about investing in its people and their morale. We would get yelled at by the CEO for using too much paper when printing things out and had to recycle office supplies like file folders instead of getting new ones. The company Christmas party was moved from an outside venue to a buffet in the conference room. They used to sell merch internally cheaply (you could get a t-shirt for $1), and then they started jacking up prices a ton (t-shirts for $15+). For a company this successful, there was no reason to be so cheap.
