Fun employee events can't offset toxic environment

Coordinator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- some fun employee engagement events - but not much

Cons

- performative DEI (as with most corporate companies) - low pay - toxic work environment, HR only there to protect the company and their executives - they promote 'yes' people and people that won't question the system - billion dollar company and they pay coordinators $60k in LA & NYC - terrible about advancement opportunities

Great perks for interns, but poor pay and politics

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great perks and benefits! Free theme park tickets, cable, peacock subscription. Good place for interns

Cons

Entry level pay is very poor and not sustainable. Lot of politics when it comes to promotions and it is based more on relationship with management rather than actual performance. Upper management just takes all your work and presents as their own. Fake it till you make is at every level of this organization. Hired people as remote and now is laying everyone off.
