Pros

The name brand is cool and you always feel cool saying you work at Warner Brothers. Also, occasionally, it can be pretty neat to walk around the lot. It's an impressive studio lot.

Cons

Upper management couldn't care less about lower level employees and I would describe many VP's and up as "mean-spirited". Directors and VP's are more concerned with appearing busy than they are with actually getting concrete things done, so nothing ever gets accomplished in a timely fashion. Work/life balance doesn't exist. Period. Essentially no growth opportunities whatsoever.

Terrible Leadership & Toxic Culture, Very “GOT”

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Speaking for WF SF only: While the company has awesome brands to work with, great PTO (10-15 days depending on tenure), "techie" snacks, and decent 401K matching... the perks quickly get overshadowed by the non-collaborative culture. Despite the toxicity, there were still a handful of great people who genuinely wanted to try their best, care for another, and find solutions to difficult problems.

Cons

Leadership has a difficult time setting strategy, agreeing on strategy, or prioritizing work thus wasting a lot of time. In general, bad behavior is encouraged and teams have a tendency to find ways to blame one another instead of spending the time to find solutions (set by leadership example from director level and above). Turnover was also extremely high due to this - half of the team completely changed 2-3x in the 1.5 years that I was there. Career advancement is not prioritized and teams are not set up to succeed due to unclear expectations. The loudest (or the brown-nosers) get advancement, not the ones producing meaningful work. If you thrive in supportive work environments that are lead by empathy…this is not the place for you.

Pros

Good benefits, pay and work life balance. The team is fun and full of talent.

Cons

Office location in San Francisco is in a very bad neighborhood. You can't leave the office without being surrounded by junkies. Its not uncommon to walk by people smoking crack and shooting up in the middle of the day.
