Pros

Fun work environment, great co-workers, collaborative environment, good benefits, many social events.

Cons

Intermittent work, low effort toward employee retention, little transparency when it comes to when more work may be available. Seemingly very little 2D work left compared to the relative plethora of 3D roles. Little transparency as far as one's performance is going. It seems a lot is decided behind the scenes regarding someone's performance, and then not communicated to that person.

Pros

The people are genuinely friendly, it can offer a good opportunity for someone to learn depending where they are in their career and the projects produced are relatively high quality. It's a small studio feel but at a large scale, which can be nice.

Cons

The upper management is a mess, there's absolutely no unified vision and the company is in a constant state of chaos, unprepared and last-minute decisions that end up hurting employee morale, client confidence and the studio's ability to consistently bring in work. The working conditions aren't great either given cramped spaces, inadequate furniture and mediocre wages. Not to mention the illegal practice of not paying overtime (which almost all studios have moved away from already).
