MUBI has an employee rating of 3.6 out of 5 stars, based on 27 company reviews on Glassdoor which indicates that most employees have a good working experience there. The MUBI employee rating is in line with the average (within 1 standard deviation) for employers within the Arts, entertainment and recreation industry (3.9 stars).
The team is overall very friendly and there is a genuine love and passion for both film and the work being done at MUBI, which is rare at any company regardless of the industry
Cons
The pay is much lower than equivalent roles in other companies both within the entertainment industry and outside it. The hours are also very long for the UK (9:30-6:30) with many instances of working late into the night being chalked up to the job.
There is also definitely a ‘MUBI’ way of doing things which can be frustrating coming from other companies as they can be resistant to change or feedback.
There is also unfortunately no work life balance at all, and seemingly no desire to address this (or the low pay) because they know that there are dozens of people lining up to take a job if someone leaves.
Pay is also very hidden and many employees have no idea about salary bands beyond basic and lower management roles
