Pros
Everyone is very friendly for the most part and the creative/3D/retouch team is talented. You will learn a lot in very short time. New office is nice and located in downtown Edmonds. Access to waterfront, shops, good food, etc. 401k matching.
Cons
Management is still figuring out roles and responsibilities especially when it comes to advancement in roles. Setting goals and knowing how to reach the next step is still very vague / unclear. Project deadlines are almost, always very short. There is very little push back against clients. Poor communication. Working 50+ hours without any buffer / compensation is not unusual and expected. April to June are very busy months. Being in the office 9-5 is mandatory even if you've worked over your 40 hours. Only a select few get to work from home. Nobody knows how this is decided. Salaries are not very competitive. Profit sharing is nice but not always guaranteed so using that as an excuse to giving a lower salary is unrealistic. Favoritism is pretty apparent especially when it comes to the types of projects you get to work on and who gets to work from home. There is no initial training for project management roles which can be very stressful for everyone involved. For example, not knowing the right questions to ask or how much to budget for a project.
