Business outlook

Pros

Colleagues with similar interest in music making, working with creatives, managers care to help their team. Remote work with access to office is nice. Sometimes there still are fun employee activities held.

Cons

Financial situation said to be improving but salary continues to not match cost of living and it is impossible to get answers. A bonus would be nice but that is not as helpful as salary raises. No layoff happening but every month it seems important people have left for weird or surprise reasons.
