Overall a good company but toxic team and department

Creative project coordinator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits, free theme park tickets and film screenings

Cons

No pay rises and no progression. Management is bad and they created a toxic environment. We did all the work they didn’t want to do and kept all the exciting projects for themselves. They never tried to help develop ourselves and made the work ten times longer and harder because they don’t understand what we do nor do they respect the work we do. You take on more and more work, from people that have left and you’ll get no recognition, no pay, no promotion for it.
