Pros

Excellent work life balance, great benefits, great coworkers

Cons

Used to be a company focused on care but management has lost that caring touch. Multiple company-wide layoffs within 6 months and they are laying off high performers because they have high salaries. After layoffs, management doesn't acknowledge people lost or workload impossibilities. Huge push on AI despite valid concerns on implementation and no support on using AI day-to-day...feels like management is pushing AI to cut out jobs for a better financial outlook. Even before layoffs, career progression incredibly unclear and notoriously difficult.

Pros

For a working creative, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better job. Working with famous brands, collaborating with some of the most talented creative minds, and getting to make products that bring magic and joy to people's lives is an amazing and addictive feeling. Plus the hybrid structure and the PTO/my5days program are amazing for working families or travel lovers.

Cons

Senior leadership treats the company like their personal playground and often makes questionable decisions that negatively impact the business. Layoffs and re-organization of the business are regular occurrences, with only the top brass who don't actually make anything of profit being offered job security. When they semi-recently remodeled their corporate building, teams were told that asking for trash bins and water fountains in their work areas was "too much."
