Pros
Great place to meet lots of artists and work with wonderful people, except for the male directors
Cons
As a woman, you will always need a man to back you if you want to accomplish anything. Reports of sexual harassment and discrimination were never taken seriously. Salary discrimination. No effort to make the place more inclusive. Constant infighting among male directors and CEO for power. Revolving door.
