Pros

Place is excellent. People generally nice. At the 'sharp end' some very good people. Often get extra days off when the company is doing well.

Cons

Management seem to work in a vacuum. Talk a good talk about work/life balance but when it comes down to it that goes out of the window. HR are useless.

Pros

Young, buzzy, fast moving culture in exciting industry sector lots of social events, corporate entertainment, premieres fun working culture, couldn't wait to get into the office everyday to see my colleagues Loads of freebies

Cons

slowly dying sector Physical sales of DVD's, blu-ray tanking fast and being replaced by digital Retail industry in turmoil, margins squeezed which means less shelf space for DVD product and with a lot of competition from studios trying to flog release after release it's a tough gig. pay isn't that great but outweighed by the fun working culture.
